Scrapshotz Gives Back.....

I love doing these challenges... Scrapshotz is hosting yet another on line crop and while I am sad that Kathy is stepping away as a public scrapbooker... she has inpired me in so many ways.. from her photography classes to her scrapbooking layouts and cards.... I had the opportunity to meet Kathy in real life last year and I hope that it was the our last time our paths will cross...


here is the layout that I created for this challenge... and because I have done so..Scrapshotz will donate $5.00 on my behalf to the RED CROSS.....
here is a link to the site...

I loved this challenge becuase it was such a great idea to pick a song to go along with the layout... My choice was beautiful boy by Celine Dion... I love the song....
