This week over at the Lily Bee blog we are having a blog hop with Petaloo!
Petaloo makes all sorts of lovely flower embellishments. We had the opportunity to play with their products -- here's what I came up with:
Supplies: Cardstock: Bazzill. Paper: Lily Bee 6x6 Tiny Tablet. Petaloo Jeweled Florettes in all white. Sequins: American Crafts. Alphas: American Crafts. Courner Rounder: EK Success
Seriously? these photos crack me up. and they were all taking in a matter of a minute.
Last week we participated in the "Mutt Strut" to benefit the Indianapolis Humane Society. We got to actually walk the entire track at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It was SO cool! I am super proud of Jonah and Jordan (and our 10 year old dog chocolate lab kinja!) - they walked almost the entire thing (there was a stroller handy for backup- ha!)
But these photos are SO "our life" right now. They can be arguing and all worked up about something silly and within a minute hugging and "friends" again. Siblings.
Somedays are better than others. Somedays I feel like a referee. But I know this is: 1) normal and 2) completely worth the time, effort, and feeling-like-i-am-losing-my-mind moments to teach them the important lesson of loving each other (and obedience).
Thankfully they both have sensitive hearts to one another and are quick to admit they are sorry (well, one is quicker than the other:)
For this layout, I used Lily Bee's 6x6 Tiny Tablet (love that i don't have to cut into my 12x12 pages to create this mosaic feel) to make a grid. The white petaloo flowers were sprinkled over the layout. Really liking the white on white feel. Keeping it simple with the focus on the story of the photos was my goal. Really loving how it turned out.
Keep an eye on the Lily Bee blog this week for more inspirational layouts!

You are right that some days are better than others, it is completely normal and it is worth the time and effort to teach them to be loving and forgiving.
I feel your pain; some days I feel like a referee too!
