love bliss

Last week I did something that I promised myself I'd never do, I went back into lower-management at my store. I seriously love my job but didn't love that aspect of it which is why I stepped down in the first place. Given the time of year it was probably a crazy idea but I'm getting the swing of things again.  All this catching up I've been doing is kind of fun, a walk down memory lane without even opening my albums and my mental break from day to day expectations. ;) 

Like so many others I've posted in November, this layout's been hanging around the computer for a while too. I don't remember all the techniques I used but there is definitely some Viva Decor Stamp Paint and Modeling Creme. I think that the background colors were done with Faber-Castell gelatos.

But seriously, why wouldn't I scrap that adorable kid? I couldn't find it again in my computer but based on the shirt, he was probably about to be a big brother. What a doll. Ack! And that smirk.

Also used on this layout was: 

Studio Calico wood veneers

stash sequins

Heidi Swapp Words stencil

Stampendous stamp

Studio Calico chevron stencil

Pink Paislee Artisan mistable shapes
