Brother / Sister shots

24 years ago

Since I had two children, a boy and girl, about a 1 1/2 years apart, I have a LOT of close up shots (from the waist up) of my children together, with little or no background images. I need some new suggestions for this type of page. I have already done the Brotherly / Sisterly Love type thing, Best Friends, etc... HELP! I am at my wits end here. Thanks Penny

Hi Penny,
If you "get into" making quilt squares you could look for patterns that involve two - like Two Stars, Hugs and Kisses, Ins and Outs. I use a quilt pattern on the right page, add pictures to it, and then use the same colors and more pictures of the same theme on the left page. You might also do a Noah's ark theme - Two by Two. Or think of expressions involving 2 that you could use for titles - like "One for the money, two for the show..." Use word play - "Two Cute for Words". Hope I've helped. Another thought - use teapot stickers (some will be coming your way) and the title "Tea for Two."

Well I did come up with these I hope that they will help.
Cutie Pies, shape the pictures in circles and put a crust shape around them maybe use a picnic theme with the rest on the page or you could use a rolling pin shape and other baking items. Two Peas in a Pod cut a green pod shape out and the photo would be the pea with green paper behind it.
Children are Lifes Greatest Treasure, a treasure box comes to mind and whatever else you can think of to put with it.
Clownin' Around, clowns, circus animals.

Well I may have nodded off myself as I didn't think of it in terms of Nora having a secret. I was thinking she just didn't want any more reminders of William's shenanigans and wanted the kids to get something out of the company while they could by selling their shares... but maybe the guy that wants to buy the company is the father to one of the kids and she doesn't want that to come out...who knows. Was a good episode on Sunday, it will be nice to have Tommy back for an episode or two. Did it look to you like Kevin had lipstick on when he and Scotty were talking about opening a restaurant? His lips sure were pink! LOL... Suzan J

Having taped Castle and Mentalist and not watched either yet, it makes me wonder. We were over at my step-father's last nite, and chatting and he asked me if I thought Castle would be back next year. That took me by surprise and I told him that we taped it. So he didn't elaborate, but said it's a heck of a finale. So it had BETTER NOT be cancelled!!! To get rid of good shows, to put in reality and crappy sitcoms just makes me boil. Saw a mini segment of Ashton Kutcher with his other 2 co-stars. I don't know how that story line will unfold, and work. Just from what I saw, I don't care for him. Don't rake me over the coals, just my first impression.

I love Justin. He was always a favorite, but he seems to have matured enormously in his year away. (And I had read that the actress that played Rebecca had declined to renew her contract, though she's supposed to be back for a couple episodes this fall, probably to wrap up her story line.) It never occurred to me that Luc was after Sarah's money. I do hope not. I so hope they don't split up Kevin and Scotty. Scotty is just wonderful.

The longer that show stays on, the most I dislike it. That's a family that quarrels and belly aches over stuff that most families would just let go. It's like they don't want to get along and I get a little tired of that. If I miss many shows this year, it won't bother me.

Have you checked out the DMarie site? When I am stuck, I go there and look at their "Inspiration" section. They have oodles and oodles of poems and page topper ideas!
