LM 630 - Favorites - Shapes

This month at Lasting Memories, we are revisiting the most popular challenges from this year.  This week, we are using shapes on our layouts - triangles, circles, hearts or hexagons.

I created a layout about bringing Audrey home from the hospital.  I found this adorable cut file of a house.  It had several triangles and a heart, so it worked perfectly for this challenge.










Supplies:

December Challenge YOUrself

 This month at Challenge YOUrself, we are using black and white photos! 


When I saw this month's prompt, I knew exactly which photo to use.  When we did Audrey's newborn shoot, we got an incredible picture of Mike and I bowing our heads over Audrey.  We're in the window, so it's a silhouette and it looks amazing in black and white.

December Stick it Down

 Here's the December sketch at Stick it Down:


I created a layout with photos from Christmas 2021.  It was Audrey's 1st Christmas and it was the most amazing day!
















I had so many photos that I added a flip flap with additional photos.

LM 628 - Favorites - Wedding Inspired

This month at Lasting Memories, we are revisiting our most popular challenges from this year.  This week, we are using our May "wedding challenge" and using something old, new, borrowed and blue on our layouts.

I created a layout using Audrey's first Santa photo.  I've been hoarding this beautiful Santa image from October Afternoon (my favorite company that I miss SOOOO much!).  I knew I had to use it for this layout.

Something old - October Afternoon supplies

Something new - new baby

Something borrowed - sketch

Something blue - holly paper








Here's the page map sketch I used:
