girlie-girl layouts

Good morning!  Hope you all had a lovely weekend.  We were busy, busy, busy with holiday parties, shopping, baking, and also got a chance for some down time together!

My layouts today all feature our recent addition.  The first is titled Meeting Mindi, which was Gracie's name before we adopted her.  I included the photos we took of her the day we met her, as well as a few adorable shots that her foster mom posted of her. ;)  The layout is pretty simple, with quite a bit of journalling.

The next layout has the pictures from the day we adopted her, and she was officially one of the family! :)  I used Bella Blvd's Baby Girl papers, which I thought were very appropriate, LOL!  I used my Cameo to die cut a dog from Kerri Bradford's kit, then ran it through my houndstooth embossing folder (get it? LOL).  I also die cut the cute circular word art "little miss all that," which I thought fit PERFECTLY with her personality!  I also did some stamping on some tags at the bottom.

One more Gracie layout - these photos were from our first weekend with her, and how she's just made herself right at home with us.  I used the same Bella Blvd papers, and die cut several circular shapes with hearts and love, a sentiment, the house (same technique with an embossing folder as above), and the delicate 'love' border at the bottom.
