Easter- then and now..

Well I have some of these really cool older pictures that need to be scrapped!
Sketchy Thursdays has a very cool double layout that captured my imagination. So I put the 2 together and whoo hooo this is what I came up with... I love all the photos so it is a LO that makes me smile...

piecing life together

I haven't had a chance to post for a while.. Its hard to believe! Over at
Sketches In Thyme they have sketch #39...

yep! That's me! Imagine that!

Its all about the Green!

I have several sites that inspired me for this layout! The ABC challenge over at Colorful Creations... one part of the challenge says it has to be green! Then The Paper Variety has their blog hope and it's all about the green! Scrapping the Music has a great inpriational song from "The Blind Side".. "Chances Are.." I just love that song and movie for that matter! The Frosted Designs that had a recipe including 3 differents patterned papers, 2 fonts and a journaling tag... oh my... now the Magic is taking these and turning into a LO I love love love! ..lol..

Here is the LO ...



The journeling says....

In 1971,
Nana Hession decided
to take a trip
back to her
homeland
Ireland
she decided to
take a granddaughter
with her
I was second in line
the first declined
so I was
the
"lucky one"
It was a
wonderful trip
6 weeks in Ireland
with Nana...

yep I was the "lucky one" ... now tell what you think!

Happy Birthday to Scrappily Ever After!!
