First Wednesday of the month . . .

is my project day over at Nikki Sivil's Blog. This month I have two layouts and a card to share.

 I've had this picture of Lina and my mom in matching shirts from last June. It was a perfect photo op. And since Grandma definitely has a soft spot for Lina, this "I'm the Twinkle in Grandma's Eye" die-cut was a great title for the page.
 I used the Audrey collection, along with some Twinery twine.

This card using the Exit Here collection was fun to put together. I used strips of the woodgrain paper that were leftover from another project, and trimmed them with decorative edge scissors (I have this pair of Fiskars that I reach for over and over . . . so glad I didn't give them away!).
 Again, I used Twinery baker's twine, and an SRM sticker sentiment.

For this layout, I cut out the stars from the pattern paper in the Noah collection, as well as punching some of the stars out with a circle punch.
These photos of Merek are from three years ago--just when he was starting to pull up to standing. I just want to pinch those cheeks again! What a cutie :)

Thanks for stopping by today!

Be sure to visit tomorrow . . . Hip 2-b Square is having our first ever blog hop with some AMAZING giveaways. See you then!
