Hello Everyone!
Be prepared! It's going to be a busy day of posts today! I've got THREE scheduled! *lol*
Here's the first one! Today is THURSDAY so that means it's another TGF Scrapbooking Challenge Day! This week's challenge is to use BUTTONS on your layout using TGF stamps! Here's what I've created:
This photo is from this year's Easter at my cousin's house. I had it enlarged to 8x12 at Costco - I absolutely LOVE doing this and often forget to do it with my most favorite pictures. I think it breaks up the monotony of 4x6s and 5x7s in my scrapbooks and adds a little WOW factor. Don't you think?
I stumbled across this Scenic Route set I had been hoarding - perfect for Easter! I used the fabulous Spotlight kit for the butterflies and journaling tag and instead of using my mainstay Tuxedo Black ink, I used Rich Cocoa (Memento) and some Ranger Distress Inks for the actual butterflies (Antique Linen, Shabby Shutters, & Broken China). I don't like to use *too* much bulk on my scrapbook pages so I kept it simple and limited my buttons to 3. I think it's perfect!
Thank you for visiting today! Don't forget to visit the rest of the TGF Scrapbooking DT to see what they've created! Have a wonderful day! :)

Cute family! Heeheehee. This family photo is very similar to ours. Parents looking at camera and kids eyes are on somewhere else.
