July was a jam-packed month, but I managed to limit my pages to two double page spreads. Madelyn Tyler was born early in July, and her arrival brought Sarah, Adam, and Caleb to Rochester for a week’s visit. During that week, Tracy’s mother turned 87 and we hosted a birthday picnic for her. The photos of the cousins enjoying one another both in Matt and Betsy’s backyard and at the water park are some of my faves.
Once again, there are minimal embellishments. I made a filler card with some patterned paper for Madelyn’s birth data, added a few stickers and made another filler card with a wood veneer word that I colored with some Orange Zest ink.
The third page documents the week Tracy’s family shared a cottage on Honeoye Lake this summer.
We had a wonderful tour of the Frank Lloyd Wright’s Darwin Martin home in Buffalo, and celebrated our 43rd wedding anniversary in Niagara-on-the-Lake. I was delighted to find the teacup “button” which I added with a ticket stub for the “Alice in Wonderland” performance for a filler card. I have a little jar filled with these buttons, and rarely can find a good use for one.
A lovely way to celebrate 43 years of marriage! I really like the teacup button & how you used it with the ticket stub to make the perfect card insert. I am going to try the little square photo collage for my P.L. pages. Do you print them this small or are they just cut outs of larger photos?
These photos shine so beautifully that they need no embellishment at all.
What treasured memories, so wonderfully displayed. I’m sure these pages will get many “page views” over the years! And deservedly so. Again, congrats on those 43 years! What’s Miss Madelyn doing these days – nearly 4 months, right!
Cheers~
Beautiful Beautiful pages Karen!
You always balance everything so well and I really like the attention you spend on getting everyone in pictures! (not easy)
I repeat myself but I’m a big fan of all the white and the rounded corners 😉

Wonderful, wonderful memories, beautifully catalogued.
I always enjoy perusing your Project Life pages :). Such a lot of interesting design bits – I like your teacup badge! And the photos of Madelyn are sweet. What a lovely place for your anniversary lunch … and splendid flower displays.
Great pages! Yippee for getting them all done & finding the perfect button!
