My Little Love Bugs

     Things continue to be busy here at home and also with helping run Let's Scrap.  I always plan on doing lots of scrapping but then life takes over and I don't get anything done. Last month my oldest Son Andrew and his family, including my grandchildren Jacob and Ava moved down to Nova Scotia. I am really missing all of them especially  little Jacob. I was used to seeing him a couple of times a week so am going through Grandchildren withdrawal.  Ava turned 1 month old a couple of days before they left and Katie brought the two of them over to spend some time with me. I was thrilled to see that Ava was wearing the little outfit I had given her as a gift.  So of course I had to take some photo's.
     I finally finished a layout last night for a hidden journaling Design Team challenge that Lynn posted for us on Let's Scrap. The photo's I used were the ones I took the day they visited.  Jacob looks like he was giving his sister a loving touch but he was actually trying to get a ladybug button off little Ava's headband.  He had seen me attach it and decided he should have it instead.  I laugh when ever I see the photo of the two of them because he is acting so sweet and innocent while trying to sneak that button for himself.

     I used a Let's Scrap sketch for the layout.  I found a free file on the internet with the cute letters with the ladybugs on them I used in my title and I bought a couple of ladybug files from Country Clip Art for the little bug embellishments.  When I printed the ladybugs off the colors were very faded, probably because my ink is getting low, so I used my markers to color them again.  I pop dotted them in a couple of spots to make some of them show up more.
     Hopefully I will get a chance to do some more scrapping soon and I won't be away for so long.  I hope all of you have a Happy Scrappy weekend.
