Fine Feathered Friend

This past Saturday I had the pleasure of a whole day of cropping with Carolyn and Audrey! It was wonderful to spend an entire day being creative and I actually got a few things completed! One of the projects I worked on was a layout using photos of a gorgeous cardinal that visits our backyard frequently.

On the Two Scrapbook Friends Forum, Shelby had issued a challenge to use small photos on a layout. I normally use larger pictures, so I thought it would be fun to give this challenge a try.


I started by printing my pictures in a smaller Polaroid format. Then I used leftover bits and pieces of paper and embellishments and with a little help from Carolyn (brads) and Christa (title) I love how the page turned out!


I even used my all time favorite coffee stain stamp!



The only thing better than a day of cropping is a day of cropping where you actually get something done! Thanks for looking ~
