Love you

Its been a long time since I played in my scrap room for fun.  Or for a challenge.  With moving to Illinois from New Zealand, living with family for a short time, moving into our house, waiting on our container with all our earthly "things" to arrive, and working on a few home improvement projects.....well that hasn't left much time for playing.

With a challenge issued from my DT leader and a DT member, I have taken the time to play in my scrap room.  Guess what?  It was enjoyable!!  :)




I have done this layout for Quick Quotes banner challenge.  I used paint chips and a heart punch to make my banner.  This is my middle son Ian.  At the time he had a girlfriend and wanted to take her roses to the Intermediate School Disco.  I was so proud of him being brave enough to take her flowers. He told me after the disco he was "the only one who brought a girl flowers!"  So cute.

Thanks for stopping by.  Tomorrow I will have a post up for Frosted Designs, another project that I enjoyed making.
~Make today a beautiful day!~
