October Challenge Accepted!

For this layout I used Scenic Route paper from their Lynden line. I used a round punch for the circles and the Martha Stewart butterfly punch. It's hard to tell from the scanned image, but I punched 6 butterflies from a transparency, inked the edges and then stapled them to my circles. I punched 3 additional butterflies from the patterned paper to complete the layout.

I plan on adding some journaling just below the 3 smaller photos. This was an important day for our family and I don't want to ever forget its significance. Ava had just been transferred to the intermediate NICU at Piedmont Hospital so we were finally allowed to bring family in to see her. Mimi, Bumpa, Ayden and Jameson were all able to meet our sweet baby Ava for the first time. The main photo is of Ava holding onto Peter's thumb. It's hard to believe that she was actually that small! Now she's a healthy 21lb baby who's about to turn 1 year in just 26 days.

I hope you had fun with the October challenge!
