To be perfectly technical, these pictures aren't all from September, but who really cares? They're close enough. (The pictures of Joey are from October, when we went out for the christening.) Certainly they're cute enough.
This layout ended up being both simple and complicated at the same time -- I still need to refer to a tutorial whenever I use photomasks, so when I do that particular effect, it takes me a while. And this may come as a shock (NOT!) but I agonized over the background paper -- I really think that needed to be "right" to work well.
But the rest kind of came together on its own, once I located the three different kinds of bubbles in four different sizes by three different designers. The placement was the hardest part. But I really didn't fart around with much here, because ... this just works, I think.
Put on your fanciest and most couture Nina Garcia caps and tell me: do you like it?

why not the cousins calendar? i know it could mean a lot more than just joey and shae, but whatever.
ReplyDeletethere might be a better pic of joey in the tub on my blog. i don't think the pictures have to actually be from the month to use them anyway, so feel free to go back and pilfer.
