My kids are probably thrilled I've leaned more towards mixed media than scrapbooking lately.
This is a layout showing my younger son's exasperation one morning in 2008 when the paparazzi wanted a shot while he was eating breakfast. (I do let him eat in peace these days.)
Very quick layout with white paint, Tim's masks, a chipboard flourish and a chipboard heart inked and covered with Glossy Accents.
Thanks for the visit! Have a great day.

You think they'd be flattered lol. My son rolled his eyes too but now he's grown so snap those pic's while you can. :-) I love this page and the way you let the pictures tell the story. T!m's masks are pretty cool too!
Have a super day,

I have to smile at this :)!. Lovely layout, LOVE the red heart!. Most of all my favorite is the middle photo of Sam showing some hand action :). The eyes say it all.

Ha ha. I know my boys are going to feel the same way. But what can you do? Photos of our kids tend to be an obsession, don't they? Your layout is so clean and masculine. Your masking is so perfect that it looks like it could be digital.

How can you treat your poor kids like this for the sake of art?? Everybody used to run if I only looked at my camera! Valerie

Nope nothing is sacred when we have the camera to hand LOL - cool layout Marjie!!

LOL, I wish my dad had taken more pictures (he was the photographer of our family back then). When we moved (me aged 4) my father stopped making pictures because in our new house there wasn't enough space for a darkroom, like we had in our old house. So my pictures are scared! Beautiful layout!
