Angels in disguise...

Did you ever start a page then all of a sudden get a different idea for something else? I had one of those moments this afternoon...I was looking thru all the new challenges for May ....found one I liked pick out a picture and papers and a couple bits and pieces to go with it....I was in the middle of cutting when it stuck me that I had a different picture I wanted to use...It was the perfect picture....but it didn't go with anything else LMAO
anyway the challenge was for about a girl and I had to start fresh because I really really wanted to use this picture....its the last time I ever had pictures taken of the both of them together (professionally anyway)...once you see the picture you will see why..LOL

Look at those faces...neither one would give a real smile...but I couldn't resist getting all the pictures because this was just them...I swear this is worse then any school picture I've ever seen..Okay now for where I am linking this....

You Brighten Up My Day

So last night the new challenge blog About A Girl posted its very first challenge....Its a wonderful sketch by
Brenshevia...I thought I would give it a shot because I mainly scrap about my two girls so this new challenge blog is a perfect fit!
I decided to use a wonderful picture of my oldest Daughter Samantha from way back in 1999 yeah I know that was a while ago LOL this is when she was still the sweet girl who would still wear dresses and thought pink was pretty and still had hair down to her Butt (you can't tell in the picture because braided) but she had the most beautiful hair....until she turned into a teenager then wanted it all cut off the wonderful thing is she donated it when she had it cut,she left the house with it just below her knees and came home with a bob cut I so wanted to cry!...she still keeps it cut short to this day! :( I am also linking up with A2z Scraplets for their April challenge and also over at paper issues they are celebrate all things Serendipity!
Chance, Fate, Luck, Destiny, Karma, Coincidence....and I guess I am very lucky to have this beautiful girl as my daughter!

Here is the sketch

 Its rather disappointing the banner pennants I mean...because they have been in my stash for a while now and I thought they would look cute on this layout,I had thought they read LAUGH but what it actually read was LAUAH...so not what I wanted LOL so I used a small flower punch and a hole punch and just kind of covered up the lettering.Oh and I am so absent minded lately...I am also linking up with lasting memories for their inspired by a quote challenge!

 I love this thickers border!

thank you for coming to take a peek.....
