New LO of Tim and I

Yesterday my sister in law snapped this

picture of hubby and I at the races, and

although it was on my iphone, and

just a bit grainy, I still love it. We don't

take a lot of pictures of ourselves, and

usually not taken by someone else, it's

usually the extended arm photo taken

to capture an event or place we are at.

And because I loved this picture, it actually

inspired me to scrapbook a LO today, yay!

I printed out the picture in black and white

something I am into again right now for LO's.

All the products used on this LO are from

7gypsies, except the double sided pattern

paper and that is Bo Bunny's called

Timepiece Unlocked. I used the darker

side for the main LO and just a ripped

strip of the key side of the paper.

I had recently pinned a LO similar to this

on my Pinterest board, and knew I wanted

to do something like it myself. And since

I am a big lover of all things 7gypsies, I had

all the pieces ready and waiting to be used.

I planned my journalling out first on computer

paper, and then carefully layered the cards

onto the printout to get the printing to line

up on both cards, and I was surprised that

the thickness didn't pose to be a problem

for my printer (a big sigh of relief)

The journalling is just from the heart, at

this moment in our lives. Especially, as

the girls get older, we spend more time

as a couple then we do as a family.

Good thing we still like each other, eh?
