Kissing Cousins




This page was based on a scrapbook sketch from Tamara of Sketches! by Tamara. She's having a National Scrapbook day sketch with Prizes. You better hurry if you want to join in.

These two cuties are my nieces. They are 2 and 3 years old. They enjoy each other so much and they tried their best to smile for the cameras. There were so many cameras pointed at them they didn't know where to look. This was on Easter. The scallop green paper is by Bazzil. The base is Cool Caribbean, a retired Stampin' Up! In Color. Like so many, I wish this was a permanent color in the Stampin' Up! lineup. The journal block is a stamp from the Enjoy Life stamp set from Stampin' Up!. I put gems on each scallop. It was kind of a pain but I think the results were worth it. The other embellishments are from a cupcake chipboard sticker set that was sold at Target around Valentine's day. I thought it worked well for this page.

I'm off to get a few things done. Have a great day!

Love this sketch and your take on it - the cousins page is just darling!! I agree with you - I wish the In Colors this year and Cool Caribbean from last year would stay around - makes me so sad to see them going!!
