Happy 17th birthday!

MDSMonday 3 and Mydigitalstudio.net Color Combo 2 entry
Winner-MDS Monday 3 and Mydigitalstudio.net Color Combo 2 challenge!

I can't believe my baby is 17!  She has been such a joy and she is smart, kind and beautiful! She is just as lovely on the inside as on the outside!  What a blessing in my life!  She was our Christmas gift 17 years ago and my son finally got the little sister he'd been waiting for!  While I was pregnant with Kylie, Erik would carry his teddy bear around in a big basket like a baby carrier and call the bear "baby Kylie" and he would want to take the bear everywhere he went!  I know that I have learned so much from having Kylie as a daughter and as she has grown older, she has also become my friend!  I am grateful that she was given to me to raise and teach and love.  Happy birthday, girlie girl, I love you!

I love my little baby girlie!  Isn't she cute?

  4. Wow - what a fabulous page - you have so many amazing elements. As already mentioned - the recoloured crochet trim, your layers of ribbon and "flags" is awesome. My absolute favorite thing is how the large picture is monochromatic and the technique photo is coloured......it all just works perfectly. Thanks for joining us at MDS Monday!

  6. Such a gorgeous page (and a gorgeous young woman too!). The page is so soft and simple enough not to distract for the photos, but just enough to enhance them! I love what you've done here. Thanks for sharing with us at MDS Monday!
