And here are images of all my creations (some are repeats, but I love them so much, who cares!):

The World Blooms When You Smile! This is my niece, Payton. I spent the day with her on Thursday and we went to see the Hannah Montana movie.


Life is Good! This is the layout that I used to demonstrate how to make pinwheels on our store blog. My daughter, Amanda, was trying to decide which sunflower we should buy for our garden.



Handsome Bunch! This is a photo of us last summer. We took a couple of days and went to explore the area that we had rented a cottage later that year. Family time is so special, especially as the kids get older.


MVP! This is a hockey layout I created for a photo from Jason's last tournament of 2009. I am so proud of him and his accomplishments in hockey.

Mom Card! I have a couple of mom's that deserve a card this coming weekend. I was happy to get one done in advance.


Flower Pots! Aren't these adorable? I love them. We gave them away at our NSD crops on the weekend.


Before & After Photos! These were for my organizing challenge. It is so much easier to find things now.



Mmmm... Syrup! I scraplifted this layout from Cheryl (on our design team). As soon as I saw it, I knew I needed to add it to my album.


Time Flies! This is a photo my sister gave to me. Every Thanksgiving we go for a family walk in the woods near her house. Monty's knee does not allow him to join us on the walk, so it is just me and the kids. Wow, how time flies. I remember when they were all little.


Hopefully you had a chance to participate in some of the challenges on our forum. If not, you should try it sometime.....it is really fun and motivating. I didn't get them all done, but I am going to work on finishing them up this week.
