Birthday Poems and Titles

I recently decided to make some birthday cards - since I'm always running around trying to get one done quickly. This way I will have a few when I need one. Proactive! I really do not know what has gotten into me ;-)

Anyway, I found these scrapbooking
poems and quotes. Then I got a few page toppers for when my daughters birthday pictures come back. If you have any suggestions, leave them in the comment area!

River Street Flowers Digital Layout from a Free Kit

Loved this freebie scrapbooking kit I found over at Digital Scrapbook Place Gallery. You'll need to sign into their forum to see the different kits and other things. This kit is called Country Grunge by Marcee and I really liked using it for this LO. The LO is of River Street Savannah, where we took our Girl Scouts. While we were waiting for our dinner time, an older man showed us how to make flowers out of palms. Great experince! Fun scrapping it and sharing it with you!

I used the rounded corner rectangle selection tool to crop my pictures and make the mats.
