Scrapbooking for Fran

I've been working on a scrapbook for my mom. This is the opening page.

This picture of her at 6 months is the only baby picture she has. Such a serious look. I wonder what antics the photographer was doing to generate that expression!

Here's my take on it. She didn't really want to sit there while they fiddled with the large format camera. She didn't want to sit still. She wanted to crawl around with her sisters and brothers (of which at that time there were 5) having fun.

Or she was about to tip over because she'd been sitting there long enough and that sit-up jazz was a new skill.

The stamp I used for her name is from this set: I ADORE YOU

Warm Little Sweetness

I must admit that I have become quite fond of making little bitty sweaters. It all started on a recent trek to India traveling for business. I needed to carry just enough yarn to keep my busy bee hands occupied during the evenings in my hotel room. There are just so many hats a person can make, right? Anyway, having limited quantities of yarn, I decided to give a small sweater a go. This is the first one I created. I had just the perfect little buttons to add! (It really is amazing what one might find in their cosmetic bag) I love it. This sweater is also featured on the Pinque Peacock blog since I used her buttons. (Go visit and see the buttons up close) This makes the sweater a really one of a kind project! This next one is perfect for a little preemie. It's so tiny, but features a great big snowflake! Close up of the snowflake…. I also sewed on one of the StampinUp! Frosted Finishes Embellishments. I think it finished it off nice
