I Heart C..... M.......


Wow, after a wonderful night's sleep things sure look different in the morning! This is a page I've had in my brain for some time now. Of course my brain is never specific so getting it all to come together is often the problem. When I first started scrapbooking I knew I would use this photo in my personal book. This is one of my daughter Valerie's Senior pictures. When I say one yes that is right one she had about six or seven different shots taken and yes I did spend a fortune about $700.00 to get the complete package and that was over 13 years ago. She had pictures taken with all her "special" possessions. To make the story short, picture this those huge plastic eyeballs she held one of them in her fingers and her thumb went in her mouth, yes all with the same hand! You ask why she had soooo many???? That was because I used to buy them when ever I saw them so I could trade the old yucky drooled one with a new one. There were times that didn't work though. I still have her very first one, the eyeballs are kinda cracked and the black in one eye is rubbed almost white. This page was done for a challenge at Soul-Scrappers. The only requirement was to make a ruffled ribbon.
I hope you enjoyed this one. I gotta get ready to back to work.

Another wonderful scrapbook pages filled with precious memories. I can just imagine how "yucky" CM would have gotten (it was pacifiers with my daughter -- and I wasn't about to get caught with her only having one and it getting lost!!!!). When she agreed it was time, we threw her pacifier off the Mississippi River Bridge between Natchez, MS and Vidalia, LA!
