We had TWO new babies born in the Stott family this month! Two! (Not THIS Stott family, the extended family. Obviously. Phew.) And this is our little gift for the first one. I’m pretty happy with the effect I’m getting from my pastels. I used a really nice brown paper that looks like it came from a paper grocery bag. I used to get fancy paper from the art store, but this is actually from a scrapbooking set I got on sale at Michael’s. I figure as long as it’s acid free (which it is. I don’t actually use grocery store bags anymore) and SUPER CHEAP I might as well give it a try. I’m feeling like a genius. Plus it’s easier to store cause it’s not on some random 20×30″ sheet that just ends up getting mangled in a drawer.
Welcome to the world Samantha Skye! Good luck with your big sister, she’s a firecracker!
