i'm not sure what it is, but lately, i've been finding myself scrapping more linear type layouts and dang if they aren't hard to photograph so they look straight, LOL.
anywho. i ended up with three layouts that i'm happy to have in my albums now--with gobs of supplies still leftover for more.
i promise, the layouts really are straight in real life. take a looksie...

pit stop journaling: It's become our 'thing' to stop for lunch at Mark Pi before or after our trips to the pediatrician. She's hooked for life on Chicken & Baby Corn with brown sauce...fried rice on the side. Since we seem to have endless trips to the doctor for bouts of strep, bronchitis, and ear infectsion, the stafff at the Chinese place have come to know us quite well, even remembering that she loves her meal with chopsticks. She pretty much has them mastered. Funny thing is, Spidergirl is somehow convinced that fortunes typed in blue don't come true like the red ones do. She gets super frustrated and has a mini-meltdown when she opens hers and sees blue. I'm not gonna lie...she's kinda a big deal. Gosh, I love this kid.

anywho. instead, i used the template as a stitching guide to pierce the holes for the stitching you see on the layout below. such a versatile tool!


this kit included the coolest handmade clay numbered buttons from Charlene's Button Box. instead of stitching them on through the pre-made holes, i decided to stick some mini-brads through and glue-dot the buttons to the page. Charlene's buttons have become a monthly staple in The Story Matters kits and i look forward to seeing what she'll come up with next.
the round teal argyle stamped button on the far left of the first layout was one Charlene made exclusively for the kit too! so fabulous. :)
click yourself on over to The Story Matters and join in the fun, would ya!?
sidenote: mini-brads, needle, thread & tiny pearls not included in kit.
