Today I was inspired to create a spread in my Travelers Notebook documenting a phase Shiloh went through as she was teething. First she developed her two middle teeth on the bottom, and then she sprouted her top incisors next. She looked like a little vampire! And keeping in mind I was still breastfeeding at this stage, so it was slightly frightening! LOL!
Now I know there are all ranges of 'normal' out there, but my other 3 kids had done the standard thing of growing all their middle teeth first, so this was something a little unusual for me. Wondering if my baby was some kind of freak, I turned to the font of all wisdom.... and asked my Instagram followers what they thought ;-) You all reassured me that plenty of your babies had done the same thing and so maybe it wasn't so weird after all!
Anyway, it was still a story worth documenting and I had the ideal stamp set in mind to help me tell it. I figured the toothy chompy alligators from the Later Alligator set would match my theme perfectly, and I was right. A flawless combination of teeth and cute - just like Shiloh!
I created a series of little windows down the side of my page using the stacked circles from the latest release Build a Tag Die Set. Then I filled each one with different images to make a little scene, varying the shapes and images and products to generate a lot of interest. And as always I made sure to leave plenty of space to write my journaling.
You can watch the process of how my page came together in my video today. I hope you enjoy!
