July Kit

Back Porch Memories has 2 kits per month - the Solo Kit & the Medley Kit. I was given the Medley which contains yummies from Bazzill, Chatterbox, KI, Cosmo Cricket, Scenic Route, American Crafts and Buttons Galore. Here's the kit:


As GDT, I am required to do at least 3 layouts & 1 project.







Title: Family
Journaling: The best part of my family are my husband and son.












Title: The Best Gift
Journaling: Your Dad & I thought we'd never have you. Then in Dec 2006, imagine our joy when we found out that you were on your way. It was definitely the best gift that year.










Title: Cute As A Button
Journaling: I cannot imagine waking up one day not seeing your cute and adorable face.










Title: On The Go
Journaling: I am amazed how active you are. You move around the house grabbing everything that catches your eye. I'm sure this is only the beginning.












"Hello" Card









I so enjoyed this kit and still have more supplies left. I think I'm going to do more.

Challenge at BPM

I hosted one of the July Challenges over at Back Porch Memories. Mine is an "All Paper" challenge using only CS or PPS for everything on your page - title, embellies, journaling sheets, etc. And you can do whatever with the paper cut, tear, punch, edge, anything!

I hope you can join. Click here for challenge details and here to upload your entry.

And here's my sample LO:

Title: Silly Love

Journaling: These photos taken 2 months before our wedding when everything was still underway and yet to be finalized. And a photoshoot at this time was the last thing on our minds. Nevertheless we decided to give it a go "to get it out of the way". As it turned out, we had so much fun! It was definitely the break that we needed. -- Sept 2005.
