2Peas NSD Share: Using up 6x6 Paper Pads

So how did you celebration National Scrapbook Day? Me. I checked the internet about 8,000 times looking at all the pretty things people created, checked in on some chats, watched over the Carta Bella and Echo Park challenges, moved a few things around on my desk in a feeble attempt to generate some creative mojo, and then just enjoyed the day with friends and family. So I wasn't particularly creatively productive, but I did fill my creative stores with all the amazing projects I saw posted in the 2Peas gallery and on Facebook. I love that we share our work with one another. It's gratifying to know that other people love playing with paper and recording their memories.

Although I didn't create anything new on Saturday, I did create a special layout just for the day a few weeks ago that I finally get to share. This layout about my beautiful daughter:

Incorporates this fun 6x6 paper pad from My Mind's Eye. There are lots of these pads on sale for 50% right now HERE in the 2Peas store.
