Lasting Memories #516 Challenge

 Some awesome challenges over at http://kcclayoutchallenges.blogspot.com/

 LM #516 - Australia - September is Spring, it truly is the most beautiful time of the year in Australia. The wildlife, trees, and flowers are in abundance. I would like to see FLOWERS on your layouts this week. It can be embellishments, stamped images, or on pattern paper.

This is my layout! You can see some flowers tucked in there! I used some acetate and transparent ones and really loved how this layout came out!! I even used some flowers under my clear hearts (homemade flairs with pp)! This is my daughter for her Spring school photos back in 2016. TFL!!

Lasting Memories #515 Challenge/Challenge YOUrself September challenge

 Some wonderful challenges over at http://kcclayoutchallenges.blogspot.com/

and http://scrap-challenge-yourself.blogspot.com/!!

Lasting Memories challenge was to create a balanced layout and use China's colors white and blue.

Challenge YOUrself was to always include a picture of yourself and being thankful this month.

This is my daughter and I heading to the beach!!

I'm so thankful she gets to call me Mom!!

And thankful the beach is pretty much our back yard!!

I'm really not sure what a "balanced" layout is but I think it's balanced!! LOL!!

That is a white background! I can never take a decent photo with any solid background color!!

Also used this layout for a color challenge over at CSI via FaceBook!!

TFL!!
