These pictures are from the last time I had my daughter professionally photographed. She's 4 months in these pics...she's almost 5-years-old now. Maybe it's time to get some more pics done, eh?
STP's challenge #20 poem is "Dreams" by Langston Hughes. I chose to interpret the poem for my title "Let Your Dreams Fly".

Oh, that Webster's Pages flower trim is so dreamy! And check out that frame. It's from Pink Paislee and I have absolutely no idea what material it is made out of but it's gorgeous. It's like super soft taffy that doesn't lose its shape. It comes "naked", kind of a manilla color. I sprayed it with some lime Maya Mist and rubbed a bit of it off so that the surface is just subtley green while much of the color pooled in the crevices.

And how stinkin cute is that Prima pebble with the little bonneted girl? I layered it on top of a digi stamp flower from Digi Doodle Shop, this week's Sketchy Thursdays sponsor. There's another one in the picture below. On both I printed them out, colored them in with colored pencils, and sprayed them with some pearl Glimmer Mist.

Into my second week in the Claudine Hellmuth online techniques class and had to incorporate some newly acquired acrylic paint techniques. Here I used watermark resist with an acrylic paint wash and acrylic paint stamping on some French text paper I got from Diana's etsy shop.

With the exception of the French paper, digi stamps, and the Webster's trim, everything on this layout is from the Ninja Addicts kit "Thrift Shoppe Junkie". Such a gorgeous kit!!!
I would love to see you play along with us on both Sketchy Thursdays and Scrap That Poetry!!!
Off to check out what's in store for week 3 in the Claudine Hellmuth class, put some finishing touches on some other things I've made for it so far, and to enjoy the official last week of my son's summer vacation. I think I may break out the huge roll of butcher paper today and see what they create.
