"Love"

I finally got around to creating a layout about the plaque my wonderful husband bought me last week! Journaling: My sweet husband! Bill went into Family Dollar to buy me some medicine. He came out with the medicine and this beautiful plaque!

"Leibster Blog" Award

Thanks so much to Sue at http://4scrappitite.blogspot.com/ for passing the Liebster Blog Award to me! What a pleasant surprise!

Now this award is designed to recognize bloggers who have fewer than 300 followers, but who put a lot of love into their work. For me to accept this award, I am to spread the love by recognizing up to 5 blogs whose work that I admire and that I follow. So many I admire and follow, its hard to only chose a few, they all need to be reongised.

Here are the 5 that I am passing the award to:

"Us"

I created this post to submit to http://getpeachy.blogspot.com/. When I rolled the dice on http://www.random.org/ to determine the # of phots, patterned papers and embellishments I used on it, which is what the challenge is, I rolled 3 for photos, 3 for patterned papers and 6 for embellishments. When I told my husband I rolled 3 for photos, the first thing he thought was to use seperate photos of the 2 of us and one of us together, and this is what I came up with.
