{just another} ordinary day

I am a big fan of Jillibean Soup! (I love the quality of their papers, and unique embellishments!) I am in love with their Chicken Noodle Collection, and I had enough of this paper, to join this challenge, Free For All Friday Sketch.
You definitely want to follow the link, and take a look at what others designed for this challenge, too. This is the sketch we worked with:

I enjoyed the sketch, and was able to scrapbook two more snapshots of my darling son!
{just another} ordinary day

Have you tried the Coredinations Cardstock? This is my first time to work with this paper, and I can tell you, that I love it! It was easy to sand, and the texture on this paper is fabulous. It was perfect for this collection of papers!
details:

I added machine stitching to the page, to give it more texture. Then rolled the paper downward, and tore, at intervals. I also sanded down the chipboard alphas to give the page a more worn in look.

This cute little chick is part of the Farm Fun Set. I wanted to give him a little bit of fluff, so I used the flocking powder by Doodlebug. Hopefully, you can tell that the yellow in the small jar, is a little too dark. By adding some white flocking powder to the yellow, it lighten my color, to the perfect shade! By mixing colors, just as you would paint, you can achieve that color, that you think you do not have! 
Thanks so much for stopping by today!! My Mom is coming in from Texas this evening, and I cannot wait to see her! 
Have a great night too,
