"Eight" Layout

I had lots more fun than I expected from this challenge at Bitten by the Bug 2.  The challenge was to use the pointing hand cut from "Graphically Speaking".  This is a great cart, and lucky for me, my fellow scrappy sister gave it to me for my bday.  I am not terribly crazy about that particular image...it just isn't "pretty" to me.  But, I remembered this pic of my son on his 8th bday this Spring.  I took his pic that day and I don't know why he did this (maybe he was telling me he's #1...my children have never had any qualms with self-esteem.  :))  So I got to work.  I love, love the number borders and was thrilled to be able to use one on this layout.  I penstitched around the hand and machine-stitched the top and bottom of the page.  The sleeve on the hand is stamped.  So happy to have another page completed.  TFL!
