Have you seen this yet?

It's the May issue of Scrapbook Trends and that just happens to be one of my layouts on the cover! Eeek! Yeah you can say I'm just a teeny tiny bit EXCITED! LOL


I actually created this layout during a girls' night of scrapbooking with my two gal pals Corey and Kristen. It was so much fun to just hang out together and scrap while enjoying some food and wine with good friends.

Oh and just one more tiny note (because it's kinda driving me a bit bonkers) - see that orange clip hanging out at the top of my layout. Ummm ... it wasn't supposed to be there. It actually was supposed to be clipped to the side of my photo by the other embellishments. Not quite sure how it walked and attached itself up there but ... ah well!
