Hugs and Kisses with BasicGrey

We are so fortunate to have a strong relationship with my mother-in-law.  My daughter gets to spend time regularly with her grandma and they have a special loving bond. What better collection to reflect warm loving goodness than BasicGrey's Kissing Booth?  Here I created a layout for SNR's May 2012 Change It Up sketch article capturing the feel of the photos using the papers from this line a a combination of punched and fussy cut hearts.  If you can believe it, there are actually 10 different patterned papers used in the making of this one.


Supplies: Cardstock: Bazzill; Patterned Papers and Cardstock Sticker: BasicGrey; Fabric and Chipboard Letters: American Crafts; Punches: Marvy Uchida, Recollections and Fiskars; Ink: Close To My Heart; Pen: Steadtler, Sketch: Emma Stafrace

My assignment was to change the 12x12 sketch into an 8.5" x 11" version.  Here is the original rendering:




 As you can see, circles became a bevy of hearts raining love and happiness.

TTFN,

I adore how you used hearts instead of circles. Just perfect for this touching page about your daughter's relationship with her grandma. This layout is above and beyond sweet!

Oh this one is so precious! I really wish I had more layouts like this of my kids with my mom (and now it's too late ... yours brings tears to my eyes, silly huh?). Going to pin this! Thanks Cassandra!
