best parts

I wanted to scrap these photos of some of my favourite baby parts of Lady Bon-bon, so decided to give her a "blue ribbon" for having the best baby parts.

I absolutely love this distressed wood paper by October Afternoon! I usually only try to buy one sheet of each patterned paper, but I'm definitely going to have to find another piece of this one.

I made her blue ribbon with a scored/folded piece of paper from the October Afternoon Sidewalks 8*8 pad, a diecut scalloped circle from OA Sidewalks Flower Sack and a ruffled piece of blue crepe paper. The ribbon tails are cut from a striped piece of October Afternoon patterned paper from the Farmhouse 8*8 pad. 

I absolutely adore October Afternoon labels! Can't stop sticking them on nearly every layout I've done recently! They are just the perfect size and colour, and I love that they are just plain -- most of them don't have preprinted text or images. Makes them so much more versatile. 

I stacked up a piece of Farmhouse 8*8 paper, a torn shipping tag, and an old book page, and taped them all in place.
