Challenge Heaven March

Since getting into scrapbooking the biggest problem I've found (besides not spending too much money!), is knowing where to start. My oldest son is nearly 11 so that's a lot of photos to go back to scrap! What I found helped was Challenge Heaven. Each month they have different challenges, I've found it easier to go back through my photos and find ones that fit the challenge I want to do.

This Layout is for the May Colour Challenge which was Red and Blue (small amounts of black and white may be used) and the extra Criteria: love heart. I couldn't get my brain around it initially because my first thought was to do a page with a white background with red & blue touches. But one of the things I love about challenge websites is the inspiration you get from other people's Layouts. Cathy Cafun is one of my favourite scrapbookers. I don't know her personally but I love everything she does! This LO she did showed me you could do a page with very little white and it look good. I was also inspired by a sketch from Scrapbook Memories by Tammy Milborn.

I love this precious photo of my boys. Even though it was over 6 years ago, I still remember it well. My oldest was singing his baby brother a funny little song. These are the things I want to remember forever.

Keep blossoming!
