Hi people, It's National Scrapbook Day and I am celebrating at a Scrapbook retreat with my fun loving and crafty friends. I just finished my first layout of the day.
I am following the May challenge for Scrap Our Stash at: http://scrapourstash.blogspot.com/p/current-challenges.html
The challenge was to create a layout and include an item from your stash for each letter in the word E-M-B-O-S-S.
I used E (enamel dots), M (mist on green banner, it was white), B (banners), O (owl), S (striped paper), S (stickles on just chillin')
I love combining challenges so I also utilized the following sketch challenge:

Here's my rendition. I hope that you like it. I love scrapping my children's baby pictures. It always stirs up such tender memories. My son would pick up the video game remote every time his sister or god-brother would walk away. He really thought he was playing.
I also love using my Fun Stampers Journey product on my layouts. I used FSJ banner dies. They're so cute and a great addition to any project. To order: www.funstampersjourney.com/40
Happy National Scrapbook Day!
