New Babies - The Studio Challenges - New Life

Hello, hello! Happy Sunday to you all! I hope you are having a good weekend. We started our weekend off with a fun family pizza night on Friday with all of the kids, and we have been enjoying the warmer - sunny - weather yesterday and today.

It's time for a new challenge at The Studio Challenges today. Since yesterday was the first day of spring - we want to see new life on your layouts. Maybe it's the spring flowers coming up, a new baby or new puppy, etc. - it is up to you!

Growing up on a farm - when spring rolled around it meant lots of new babies being born. I always loved it when one of the cows would have a calf and we always had several bottle calves to take care of. They were always so cute running and bucking around the fields. I don't live on a farm now but our neighbor raises beef cattle so I get to see new little cuties like this every spring: 

For this layout, I used a paper pad from Die Cuts With a View - Spring Bloom. I thought these papers were perfect for a springtime page featuring a cute little calf. I didn't have any embellishments from this collection so I fussy cut several of the flower clusters from the patterned paper for my layout. I never dreamed I would make such a flowery layout about cows - but I like it!

Here are a couple of close-ups:

I added a few puffy dots around my layout to finish out the layout. 

Be sure to head on over to The Studio Challenges to see the lovely layouts from the rest of the design team. I hope you have a chance to play along with us!

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today! I will be back soon with another layout to share with you!
