Magic, WHERE?

Let me just say there was no magic in the making of this chunky photo book 

only mayhem,  madness, and plenty of blonde moments;)

It was fun don't get me wrong however, 

the directions should have been laid out much better than they were!

The story goes as such:

My Sister purchased this kit at Archivers when she got it home she opened it up, looked at it and decided I should be the one to assemble it because she had no idea of where to even start.  LOL!

It took a few DAYS to assemble in the end I really enjoy the final project.

Here is the kit available at the Archivers Annex

Thanks for stopping by today!

Good Sunday to you my blogging peeps, hope you get to enjoy

this beautiful day with your loved ones.

I participated int he November Template Challenge at

Stuff To Scrap "STS"

This month the layout provided is by

Christin Thomas.

Here is my creation...

Jessica, was born in November of 2005 while Grandpa and Grandma Tieszen were

off relaxing at their winter home in Arizona.

These pics were of their first meeting when they returned in the spring of 2006.

It was just before Easter and they brought toys, that is what every photo of J is a blur she is

trying to get to them.

I love these pics and they make a cute page fuzzy or not;)
