More pictures!

Since I take a couple thousand pics a year ;-P be prepared to see a lot more here on my blog, especially with a new baby to take tons of pictures of! Here are some pictures from last week...
***
First, here is a picture of Trysten getting ready for church yesterday - can you tell how I made his shirt? It's a different kind of 'altered project' - scroll down for details.




I made a bunch of these 'Tie' shirts about 5 or 6 years ago and gave some to my SIL when she had a little boy. Then when she gave me a couple tubs of boy clothes when Trysten came along, there they were again - so I couldn't wait to make more using some of the great CTMH papers.


I decided to try something different for the first one I made for Trysten and create a vest and tie look. I used some paper and Stickease buttons from the Stardust kit - unfortunately, my scanner was acting up and I could only get it to copy the image instead of scanning it, so the color and pattern is off but I still think it turned out cute and he looks handsome! I have one more plain white onesie, I will be making another one but this time I want to get a decent scan first, plus I have to decide which paper I want to use this time!

First create the image out of paper...



Then scan/copy it onto Iron-On Transfer paper - I wasn't sure how the layers would iron on, so I decided to do it all in one piece instead of each piece seperately...



Then cut out the image and iron it onto the plain white onesie! With this picture, you can see the difference in the color from the original to the ironed on piece...



Here is Kaylee giving Trysten sweet kisses...



Check out Trysten's 'scowl' - he pulls this face quite often, ever since the day he was born. You'd never know he's such a good, happy baby by this look on his face ;-)


This is one of my current favorite pictures, even though the coloring is way off and it's out of focus, I just love the look on each of their faces!

Here is Brailee helping with Trysten's bath one morning - she sometimes ends up quite wet! She is such a big helper, she wants to help me do everything, even change the stinky diapers ;-P
