As our kids grow the opportunities to just hang out together become fewer.  They are just so busy living life and being the well adjusted, social & opportunity seeking individuals we raised them to be!  I loved this afternoon stroll on our local dog beach.  We chatted and laughed and even touched on some D&M topics.  It’s this everyday stuff that I cherish most and so it needs to be in my album.

The inspiration for this layout came from a Flip Stand Album project taught to us at a consultant training in October.  I just love the sentiments on the Family Love stamp set (D1506).  They express perfectly how I feel.  I stamped the sayings directly onto the background in three different colours.  This layout is copied from Layout 15 in Make It From Your Heart Volume 1

I stamped the decorative elements on cardstock and fussy cut with my scissors.  I love the super fine point on the Micro Tip Scissors.  It makes it so easy to cut delicate shapes.  The circles can be cut on the Cricut or using a cutting system of your choice.
