Memory Monday

Sharing an old layout with you. Photo from 2008. Layout from 2010.

I remember the day the photo was taken like it was yesterday. I woke the girls up early that Sunday, because we had to leave my parents' and drive home to Singapore. They were grumpy, because they didn't wanna go home. 

They were still into wearing identical outfits then. (high school musical tshirts! anyone remember that? LOL) They won't now, even if you're willing to pay good money. Ha!

I decided to stop at the first beach-park we encountered after we passed the immigration checkpoint. And what do you know, that was all it took to bring back my two happy girls. We ran around, played with everything, climbed up and down without a care. Basically we had a grand time at the empty park at 7 in the morning. 

The layout itself is pretty simple. Kraft cardstock, spray-misted white swiss dots bazzill, A Hambly Studios sticker, a Prima flower, some rhinestones, a paperclip, some length of jute, a strip of rub on and multicolored stamping for the title work. It made the layout of July 2011 issue of Scrapbook Trends.

It comforts me that right now, at 14 and 12, they still want to spend Sundays at the park with me. No climbing this time, they're really into rollerskating at the moment. :) Photo below was taken yesterday, January 26th 2014.
