I love going to crops and learning new things.. as I look at my project 12 last 2 months I am so glad that I have decided to do this project... well here is my layout for February... (I still have some journaling to do but as that is a private part of my life I am not going to be posting it) .....cant wait for the next few months to see how the rest of the year turns out with this project....

Wow.....

I am so looking forward to this weekend... I am going scrapbooking at a retreat with 2 of my girlfriends.... and I am so ready to get stuff done.. I have my pictures printed away we go... all weekend long...
the first thing on my list is the February project 12 layout... and this layout is going to be about Kurt and Mocha.... sooo excited..

I love this project 12... I am going to do it on the family as space out which month is for which family memeber... so the book is about family and not just one person... it is going to be great when it is done...

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.....

I creating this layout from the inspirational blog post on scrapshotz.com
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....
