Totally Redeemed

Sorry for the Dumb and Dumber reference, but I wasn't feeling my last Hand Stamped Sentiments project....not so this week.  It's our inspiration week and I'll admit I really stared at this one in my room day after day.



Isn't it lovely!?!?!...but just where to go?  I headed to my photos looking for a Valentine photo to scrap...turns out I must not take many Valentine's Day pictures.  I did however find one that I adored, even thought it's an old film photo. (So happy I only have a couple of years of film photos!)  Here is my layout:

It's stark white with pops of red-just like the inspiration photo!  This is my Linnea who is now just shy of 9!-how the heck did that happen!?!?

It was so hard to photo but the background has a fun little pattern:

I scored "envelopes" on the background-sorry you may have to click on the photo to see it larger.  I scored every 3" to make the squares then used the diagonal plate to make the "flap."  My last little detail that I loved is the flower button to match her flower on her shirt.

Be sure to hop over and check out the projects from the rest of the team!- and remember you have 2 weeks to play with us.
