LO - Happy Pose

Paper: Basic Grey 'Serendipity' (all),
Journal Tag: Basic Grey 'Sweet Thread'
elements: created the stars element using custom star shape and clipped them to Basic Grey patterned papers in photoshop. 

Done this digital layout based on Pamela's World of Scrap bonus sketch # 212. Photo of my 5yo son posing for a shot after his kindy concert. See the red goody bag which he clung on tightly despite me asking him to put aside. He saw his favourite packet drink inside it together with others candy, that's why he could not bear to part with it...lol..!

LO - You're Such A Hoot!

Papers : Connie Prince (embossed purple card stock), Basic Grey Sultry (purple patterned), Serendipity (yellow, floral cream)
Elements: Samantha Walker 'Kokeshi' (lantern, purple border stripe), 'What A Hoot' (owl, Hoot wordart)

Captured this photo during my 5 years old son's kindy annual concert just happened to be around the Mid-Autumn Festival. He's performing the Indian pop dance. He managed to dance throughout the song, a great improvement as compared to his first concert when he's 3 year's old where he stood still on the stage feeling so lost and afraid..lol..!

This layout was done based on a sketch from Crafty Steal Third Thursday Sketch September Challenge with a fall theme.
