Scrap the girls with no teeth

This month's Scrap the girls challenge is to use black,white and one other colour. I've gone for an obvious choice---red!
Annabelle was born with a hair lip and cleft palate so anything to do with her mouth has been an issue.Finally,at 6 and a half she is losing her baby teeth.She very proudly showed me the progress as I had the camera out.I've called my layout "Goodbye baby teeth". I've used old leftover numbers as part of my background then inked some white card after putting it through the cuttlebug.The b's in the word baby are old MM rubons from about 8 years ago and I found the a & Y from scraps too.The clipboard and star are leftover chipboard pieces.Overall,an economical layout.

Thanks for playing along at STG. Great page idea, love the red and the use of the alphas. My son was also born with a cleft lip, though not the palette. I hope all goes well for her with her adult teeth coming through.

gorgeous layout! my husband was born with a cleft palette and a hairlip, sadly his parents have very little photos of him when he was young :( This is a beautiful memory to document.
