Project Life - more red and hearts

**Don't forget about my giveaway down below. Today is the last day to enter. Just check out my shop and become a blog follower, easy as that. **

Avinash always comes over to check out my album when I pull out project life.  He gets such a kick out of seeing himself and his friends in there.  He always asks a million questions, I love it!


I used three plain grid cards in row.  The card with the title on it is opposite my heart confetti so I just stuck everything onto the page protector because I didn't want to disturb it.  I love the grid look so I chopped this hearts banner in threes and glued it down.  I used the negative of a Crate Paper paper heart chipboard piece for that pink heart.

I used an Elle's studio journaling card to write down some quotes from the babies lately.  The term quote being used in the abstract sense when it comes to Nandini of course.
I also had to write down the descriptions of the sake we drank at our feb. 13 dinner at Uchi.  I knew I would never remember them so I snapped a picture of their menu with Ryan's iphone. 
Avinash is really into puzzles lately so I decided to put my puzzle punch to use on his picture.  I made him a puzzle too by punching apart another picture of him.  He was totally non-nonplussed for some reason, oh well.  I want to create a layout using a similar technique as well, no reason I can't do both.
And, finally, those feathers.  Removed from a parachute Avinash made at the Children's museum that day.  Just a simple Martha Stewart kraft sticker for journaling.  Love them.  Also, that little spot in the museum playground always seems great fro pictures (with blurry backgrounds-my favorite).
The insert has an old sheet sent home from Avi's school for 'good behavior' on top.  The bottom is a mish mash of stuff; a thank you note, a picture Maria sent from this awesome fundraiser we went to on Wednesday night, and a screen shot of her email 'our loves', yes indeed. 
The group, Love Bug Bundles, is based in Houston and run by one of her friends.  It is an amazing charity that strives to support mothers in need and make each newborn's introduction to the world one complete with basic necessities that promote safety and well-being.  The founder is really passionate and has accomplished so much already.  I was truly in awe of her passion.

I also wanted to share a couple of inserts I did recently.

These are old pictures from last summer.  All of the stuff is basically what he got for participating in the science lab.  I have been hoarding these stickers and things for almost a year!!  So glad that I found a place for them.  This page protector is a 8.5x11 recipe holder from Martha Stewart/staples.  I don't really feel that bad about taking his stickers, he has plenty of others and love love loves looking at this page now.

My ten month update for Nandini.  Just some paper tape and foam numbers.  I love the bold black and white stripe.  It really adds a lot of visual interest without much effort. Happily the increase the milk effort has worked somewhat and she gained two pounds this past month.  I have not done a monthly page for her since May I think.   It never hurts to get back on the wagon.  The card on the bottom left hand is from my shop
