Capture the minutes...

Good morning!! How are you on this beautiful Saturday? I'm excited because my hubby goes on vacation starting tomorrow! We aren't going anywhere since my girls had Spring Break this week (bummer right?), so they'll be in school, but it will still be nice having him home. :)

So anyway, I have a new layout to share with you today. Earlier in the month, Sketches in Thyme posted about a DT Call on their blog and I got really excited! I've been having alot of fun with their sketches lately so I thought I'd throw my hat in the ring and try out. This is the layout I made that was inspired by the sketch they posted for the call...






Supplies: Basic Grey Olivia Paper - Amelia, Katelyn, Marabelle, Chloe; Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Walnut Stain; Ali Edwards Stamp Set - It's In The Details; Studio Calio Mister Huey - Dark Calico; Fiskars Scallop Sentiment Border Punch; Fiskars Circle Punches - Large & Medium; Martha Stewart 3-in-1 Classic Butterfly Punch; American Crafts Button; The Twinery Twine; CK Alis Hand Computer Font

This is my hubby and his mom holding Madison on the day she was born. His mom lives pretty far away so we were all very thankful that she was able to be here with us. :)

In case you're wondering why I've been working on so many baby pages lately, it's because I decided to do a scrapbook for each of my girls about their birth. It's been really awesome going back through baby pictures and working with them, and the memories have been flooding through, which I'm treasuring. It all seems SO long ago, sigh...

Anyway, if you will, please think lots of good thoughts for me to make the team!! And thanks for stopping by!
