Happy Independence Day America! This time of the year is always seems crazy for us, we're just finishing up our 2-3 times a week baseball games, our middle kid has his birthday the last day of June, which includes birthday parties & special stuff for him. Then, my husband & I celebrate our anniversary just 2 days later. Sometimes it seems the holiday gets lost in the shuffle. Either that or we're just too tired to keep up with it all! Regardless, it is an important day to celebrate here in the U.S. & to once again thank those who fight for our independence every day.
Ok, so I might have gotten off blog subject. Speaking of baseball, birthdays & our middle kid...
he turned 10 on Saturday...
I created this layout with a mish mash of Ormolu goodies to put some random thoughts about him right now {& as you can see, most everything centers around his favorite sport}. He is in LOVE with all things baseball. I am in love with him, his determination & this photo I caught of him before one of his games last month, waiting for his catcher & getting ready to pitch.
I started with Here & Now Bungalow snapshot, cutting off the word part & then cutting the frame part into a corner for the photo.
For the 10 I used a letter sticker & added the Bungalow YOU flair for the 0.
For the journaling, I found lots of labels in both the Bungalow & Tag Sale lines to use, as well as using the Bungalow dots & spots & a Tag Sale Flair. Under most everything went layered washi tape. I finished at the bottom with the ruler {that went to 10... perfect!} on the Tag Sale Fabric Tag sheet. I then stitched everything into place!
thanks for coming by & hope you have a wonderful holiday, if you're celebrating! Here's to summer!
