Blog Hop! Welcome Little One & Scrapbook Adhesive Products

Welcome to our final day of blog hopping with Scrapbook Adhesives!  Hasn't it been wonderful?  A round of applause for all the designers and the creative ways the adhesives have been used!

Pockets.  I love pockets. Especially square pockets.  When I saw Scrapbook Adhesives had these Keepsake Envelopes I knew they had to be mine.

So here is my project.  It became much more involved than what was originally in my head because things didn't fit together as perfectly as they had in my imagination. All the heads of hair in our house didn't look anything like baby hair, soooo....I raided my supply of baby hair for this project.  Wow, I've forgotten how fine it was!  Hold on tightly!
