About a Boy - Hoarders Challenge

Welcome to our March 1st About a Boy Challenge! 

For this challenge you are to create a layout using supplies that you have had in

 your stash for at least a year.

I must admit that I have hoarded alot of paper...so I had a variety of manufacturers to choice from.

I decided to break open My Minds Eye Stella & Rose collection from 2011.

My take is entitled "Be You". 

Pictured is my son "KK" riding his bike for first time after being a cast for

 6 months due to breaking his leg.

Just me & the BFF enjoying some Scrapbooking Time this weekend!

Hope all of you  had a wonderful weekend....Let's bring on MONDAY!!!

Easy Gift Idea.....Photo Collage

This past weekend, our kids finally got to visit one set of their god parents (each have 3 sets). Since they did not get to see them at all in 2012 I pondered what to give them....then I looked down at my craft table & saw tons of pictures. The best gift would be pictures from various times in 2012.

So, I found a 11X14 frame that I had been hoarding  saving for this perfect gift. 

On the back I journaled about each picture & where/when the picture was taken. 

I may do this for other family members who we don't get to see often.
