Hello my Scrappy Friends! 

I’m back with a fun layout challenge from the Challenge YOUrself Blog.

This month we want you to use the mood board below as inspiration for your layout and be sure to include YOU in a photo!! 


Here is my Design Team layout for your inspiration:

Phil and I love vacationing on Cape Ann Massachusetts, especially visiting Newburyport and Gloucester, MA.  This was a trip we took together with our family back in June of 2021. We hope to get back there one day! 

I used the beautiful Summer Porch Collection by 49 and Market purchased from My Little Scrapbook Store.  Here are a few close ups:

Let there be Butterflies! Challenge YOUrself May Challenge #137

 Hello Scrappy Friends!!


I'm back!!  It's been a long while - a broken ankle ( in 3 places ) on Christmas Eve, then surgery on Dec 30th kept me out of my scrapbook room for a LONG while - plus the new puppy's crate for sleeping is in my scrapbook room - so it's kept me out of there for a while!  

I'm trying to "share" my scrapbook room with him and get a few hours in a week to scrapbook!

I want to share this month's challenge with you from the Challenge YOUrself Blog!  This month's theme is "Create a Project Using Butterflies On Your Page." For example, you can draw a butterfly, use a photo of a butterfly, use butterfly embellishments, etc. Whatever you like! (And don't forget to include a photo with you in the frame.)

Here is my layout for the Design Team and for your Inspiration!


I used the beautiful Happiness Collection from Cocoa Vanilla - the Die Cut and base paper with the triangle patter paper came like that - I used foam squares to raise the Die Cut up and give it depth.
This is a photo of my husband and I at a sunflower field a few years ago.  I fussy cut all of the butterflies out of a 12 x 12 piece of paper from the collection.  I love to fussy cut!!

Here are a few close ups for you:


I hope I've inspired you to play along with us this month over at the Challenge YOUrself Blog!  I can't wait to see what you create!!
