Old Friend

I found an old Army friend of mine recently.  He was the first person I met when I went to my duty station in Germany.  He took me to my first German restaurant and I had my first authentic German beer.
I decided to scrapbook a two page layout as a tribute and thank you to him.  I used the Felicity kit from CTMH along with the stamp set that came with the kit.

I cased one of the sample layouts as described in the Reflections book and added some additional touches.  I love CTMH basic craft buttons and added some to this layout.

I loved the flourish and used it in many places.  I added some little gems on some of the flourishes to give it a little something.

I also did some hand stitching around the boarder and in between the diamonds.  The little bird I stamped in Barn Yard Red on a piece of white cardstock and cut out.
Well, its time for me to go.  We got close to 18 inches of snow and I need to start digging the car out.
Have a great one,
Michelle
