Celebrate Challenge #19 @ Scrappin Kids

This layout is for entry into Scrappin Kids Celebrate Challenge #19. The requirements are to scrap about our lil ones birthday celebration, to include at least 4 photos, one of which needs to be black and white.

As Grace will not be celebrating her 3rd birthday for another 2 months, and I've already scrapped her 2nd birthday photos, I decided to scrap about her excitement whenever there's birthday celebration in our family. Grace loves birthday celebration, especially the candle blowing and cake cutting session. Thus, whenever there's celebration, you could only find her in 1 place.......right next to the birthday boy/ girl in front of the cake!

Here's my layout, "Your Many Birthdays" with journaling saying: "Whenever there is a birthday celebration in the family, you will always steal, no....I should say rob the "spotlight" away from the birthday person. Funny thing is, You always win!"



I decided to make the photo of her own birthday black and white to differentiate between her own celebration and those "stolen" celebration. For this photo, I've used the Soft Focus function to blur out the surrounding and bring focus to her cutting the cake.
