New Smile Layout

I'm finally getting started with scrapping my photos from 2018 (only 6 years behind now!) and this seems like a great place to start: my daughter getting braces for the first time in January 2018. Although I know it wasn't a complete success and she ended up having to remove them early since her poor dental hygiene was putting her teeth at risk, I tried to journal what I think I would have been feeling at the time. Can anyone relate? Actually, she now has braces again and we hope to finish the job, but even the first round did help a lot so her bottom teeth weren't cutting into the roof of her mouth!

Recipe:
Alphabet Solos N & Take Note stamp sets
Teen Spirit Girl papers (Echo Park)
Gypsy, Capri, Honey & White Daisy cardstock
Gypsy, Capri, Honey & Raspberry ink
White gel pen (Sakura)
Crafting tape - washi & glitter (Recollections)
Lavender check ribbon (Michaels)
Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge: tag, stars, banner
Star punch (EK Success)
Pattern: Sketch-n-Scrap #312 - includes twist of old papers + new embellishment (washi and glitter tape)

Challenges: My Time to Craft #551 & Let's Craft and Create #215 - both had challenges to use a sentiment, so in addition to the cute sentiments on the patterned paper, I used a smile stamp as part of my title)
