A Bear named Oatmeal


I had this idea for a while and finally got all the Pics together. The brown paper is from Micheal's and the flowery paper came in a large assortment bundle from Cosoc's. The method of cutting the flowery paper came from this last weeks scrap class by Kasey. She explained it was a great way to use up scraps or large patterns that would over power a page.I thought that the pictures would stand out more by mounting the pictures on a pretty pink from Micheals. I used the corner rounder from Creative Memories and did the journaling on the computer. The story goes ..
There was a little Bear who was up for adoption. He was soon bought by a special person for a gift to a little girl named Stephanie. She was about 3 years old when he came into her life and named him Oatmeal.
Oatmeal was loved and even went to school with Stephanie. Soon Stephanie grew into a lovely young woman and fell in love with Mike. They married and had a little girl named Laila. Oatmeal was given to Laila to be loved and hugged all day long.
What a happy little Bear
Oatmeal is!
I found a cute picture of Stephanie in Pre-kindergarden holding Oatmeal. I finshed the page with a couple pics of Laila and Oatmeal.
