Year of the Tiger

 Any Tigers out there?  Geez, my family is jam packed with Tigers!!  I have my Aunty, my brother, and two cousins, and a second cousin who are all Tigers.  Part of me wishes I were a tiger too.... only because tigers look so much cooler on merchandise!

Since my brother is in my immediate family, I decided to add him to my layout.  I couldn't find any baby pictures of him, so I went with this one.. I think it's so funny!  I never know what to buy him so one year I bought him the Iron Chef's hat and apron!  He thinks he's the best cook in our family- I'm pretty sure he is too, so that's why I gave him that set.


I decided to try something a little different this time... Awhile back Debi made a wall scroll similar to the type you find in Japan.  Her's was so cute using our images. I copied her idea and made a mini one out of some bamboo skewers and vellum. Stamped "perseverance" on top and added some gold twine to the top.  Secured it to the layout using a mini brad.  I like how the tiger stands out cause he's bright orange.  Here's a better look at the Tiger..
