New Layout: Mighty Mile

This layout tells the story of Meighan's first race ... The Mighty Mile at Reston Town Center. This was intended to give her a sense of what a race was like since she had her 5K coming up! She has worked so hard in Running Club and did so well! I am so happy with how this layout ended up!  I used a Story Starter and Template from the Simple Scrapper Membership materials. They make creating fantastic pages so easy!  I can't recommend the membership more enthusiastically! It's a fantastic value!

Layout: Best Days

The February 2015 Simple Scrapper Story Starters are so inspiring! I love how the Story Starters help me tell stories that might otherwise not be told. This layout tells a great story about some of the best days in my life through 2005. It was so much fun to go through my photos and memories to pick out what my best days were ...

New Layout - Be Bold

When I saw this kit by Amanda Yi Designs and Studio Flergs, I knew that this would be perfect for a layout that I've been meaning to do about Meighan who is definitely BOLD! And I love how it turned out - seeing those photos together is amazing to me! I love our girl!

New Layout

One of the things I love about working with Anita Design's kits as a part of the Digital Press Creative Team is how perfect her work is for heritage pages. Since one of my priorities this year is to create more pages about my family history and my own childhood, I am LOVING her kits.

Here is one using her newest kit, Timeless ... this is Minnie Phillips who is my maternal great grandmother. Her son Jack is my mother's father. I love this photo of her with her bird and I thought this kit was perfect for showcasing it ...

Layouts to Share

Two new layouts to share - one of my childhood pages and one of my favorite photos from my trip to Scotland with my Dad and Nina. I'm so happy with both of them! They are also layouts I made for the Month of Challenges over at The Lilypad!

Layout Share: You Are My Sunshine

I made this very simple layout using Valorie Wibben's goodies from the January BYOC at The Lilypad for the site's Month of Challenges. And I love it! This photo of Alex and me was taken tonight when he and I went on a 'date' and took a selfie! This photo really showed me how much Alex resembles me! LOVE it!
