Few and Far Between...

Wanted to share my most recent layout with you...I absolutely love this photo of my daughter Ellie (now 11) and our sweet black lab, Loretta (10). It's one of my favorite photos ever!

Created for Scrapping Everyday Miracles blog with this Layout Sketch by Bev Code:

Here's my take!

Note: Scrapping Everyday Miracles blog will be closing down mid-January 2017. It has been a wonderful blessing to be part of this group/design team for many years. I will miss it. But most good things come to an end...(sad but true).

It's Been Awhile...

It's been awhile...

So...I want to share my latest creations for Scrapping Everyday Miracles May challenges.
