Daughters are the sweet flowers of life

What a beautiful day today!!!  The weather here the last several days has been gorgeous.  Temperatures have been in the low 80's with a light breeze.  Unfortunately today will be the last of those days, as hotter days are ahead for us.  I've got a layout to share with you today that I just finished up for the Workout #70  Develop Your Own Polaroid at ScrapFit. I knew when I saw this challenge that I wanted to join as as I have lots of those good old polaroids from way back when.  I chose to work with two pictures of my daughter when she was only 6 months old back in 1990.  Love these pictures of her, even though they were a little hard to work with given the bright gold couch she is sitting on.

I used a mix of papers from Authentique's Delightful collection along with Graphic 45 Little Darlings, along with a lot of fussy cut work and several border punches.

Alright, time for me to go . . . lot's to get done around the house this morning.
Thanks for stopping by!
. . . Debbie

Supplies used:
Authentique Delight
Graphic 45 Little Darlings
Prima Journaling Note Cards (Songbird)
Melissa Frances flower
Recollections flowers
Martha Stewart border punches:
Traditional Eyelet and Blossom Eyelet
Fiskar Scallop Sentiment border punch
