More Precious Layouts with Cotton Candy

Look at these precious pages made by bj_ella for her little sister. I just love how they came out!



You can find Cotton Candy at Digitals and at Gotta Pixel, and these sweet layouts can be found HERE. Go leave her some love. :)

I messed up on the password to the quick page in Thursday's post, so I've replaced the zip with one you won't even need a password for. Easier for all of us that way. :) Scroll down and snag the quick page below.
