Daddy and Me Layout

Hello my crafty friends,

I made this 2-page Layout along with my scrappin sistas (Sistas Strap Too) for our sistah’s Danielle baby boy album last September.  It turned out to be an amazing collection of 2-page layout with various themes.  My theme was “Daddy and Me”.

On the Left side of the layout, is the title page “Daddy and Me”  The color scheme was blue, brown and white.  I distressed /sanded  and inked the title.I wanted to add something different on the layout, so I glued down a 4x4 mini album.  In front of the album is a poem named “Daddy’s Boy” and I added a Robert Jackson Blessed III digi image of proud daddy holding his baby.  I made the digi image into a stamp using TC stampmaker.  I aslo added a 4x6 photo mat and embossed a baby rattle.

Daddy's Boy

My little eyes are watching,

My ears are listening too.

They take in everything

That you say and do.

My little hands are eager

To do the things you do.

I'm hoping and I'm dreaming

I'll grow up just like you.

I am just a little guy

Who knows that you are wise

You'll teach me what I need

For someone just my size.

I'm a bright eyed little fellow

Who is watching what you do

And I'm waiting for the day

I'll be grown up just like you.

On the right side of the layout is a sanded and distressed border with baby boy embellishments.  I glued a 4x4-corrugated picture and added 2 pockets for picture tags. And embellished, embellished and embellished.  I love completing this Layout.
