Lauren and the goats!

*This is my SECOND post for today... please scroll down to see my Frosted Design layout for this weeks challenge.... Thanks!

It's Friday and Practical Scrappers has a new sketch up for you!! Isn't it great?! These pictures are of Lauren from a visit to the zoo in the summer of '06. They have an area back in the farm area where you can feed and brush the goats. It took Lauren quite a while to warm up to these overly aggressive creatures! In the process of letting her get comfortable with them, I snapped all kinds of pictures of the various colorful expressions she had going!! The second photo is the one I like the best... she always used that face when she was unsure about something and was gettting ready to loudly complain about!! It cracks me up!! LOL!!
The papers are from We R Memory Keepers Over the Rainbow stack. The journaling flower was cut using Mini Monograms and the little flowers are Prima with some stickles and gems added!! (You know me and my bling!! Gotta have it!!) The top of the paper was done using a Martha Stewart punch and then I added in some brads in a rainbow of colors!! I added in some misc. ribbon and buttons... pop dotted the heart and there you have it!! Thank you for stopping by today.... now get off the computer and do your own LO with this sketch!! LOL!!

I just may have to try this L/O myself- this is so darn cute!! I love your details, and the colorful brads in the punched holes along the top are awesome. I LOVE that idea!! Your daughter is darling, and you sure know how to preserve your precious memories of her beautifully!

Barb,
I have been having a time with my blogger here lately....I can load blogs but can't leave comments. Sorry that I've been missing you. Hopefully it will work out soon.
I totally adore this fun layout! The border punch at the top is a great touch. You rocked this sketch!!!
Blessings,
