Photo edit of the week!

This week, take a favorite picture of your LO and add some type of effect to it. It can be anything you want! It might be a good idea to browse through some photo editing tutorials if you need a little inspiration on things to do. Play around with tints like sepia and black and white, dreamy effects, hand tinting, lighting effects....whatever you feel like!

Layout mission of the week

Scrap a layout of how your baby got their name! A great opportunity to do some journaling!
