(Kelly) "Sparkle and Shine"

Good afternoon!! I was starting to fear that we would soon be changing the name of our blog to "Scrappin Sister-" because this sister has done very little scrapping lately. Mostly due to lack of energy and ambition (goes along with being almost 39 weeks pregnant) and I horribly sore upper back that has prevented me from being able to sit at my desk and accomplish anything! Well, I'd been having a rough day, was in a horrible mood, and decided, I better do something creative, see if it helps. Well, I think it did! I got this layout done, I love it, and my mood is slightly better :)
I made this layout using Nadia's sketch over at C'est Magnifique, for their April sketch challenge. I'm sure you've seen some of the beautiful layouts Erin has been creating with their amazing kits. I also was inspired by the word "Sparkle" challenge at Bird Is The Word. I saw the challenge and instantly thought of this stamp I have, and wanted to use it for my title.
I used more of the lovely Ambrosia collection from Bo Bunny, it's truly some beautiful stuff!! These photos are from Easter, my Lilah all dressed up in her Easter dress, isn't she pretty? And looking so grown up..
Thanks for stopping by and having a look!!

Kelly this is beautiful, well done. It must have been the weather or something yesterday as I also didn't feel like doing anything so went to my scrap room. Hopefully I'll be able to post something soon.
Good luck for the next few weeks and we look forward to some happy news.
