I don't know why I waited so long to scrapbook them, but I am glad I did since I now have the perfect embellishments that I didn't have in 2006.
For this layout, I tried to use Shimelle's methodology by keeping the same colors or embellishment types in all 3 embellishment areas.
It turned out ok, but not something that flows easily for me. This layout has been sitting on my desk for nearly 2 months waiting to be complete!
I used the Mega Date Stamp which didn't have the year 2006, so I just used the "date" area of the stamp to make my own year by first stamping 20 then 06...it is a bit off, but it works :D
I tried to limit myself by using the Maggie Holmes 12x12 original Crate Paper line and her Flea Market line Project Life cards. Since I have way too many PL cards, I forced myself to use these by cutting portions from the cards! I didn't even feel bad :) I didn't really care for the rounded corners, so if I wanted to use the whole card, I cut it down so it was a rectangle.
There wasn't much on the layout that is new except the pinked grey stickers that came in the July Studio Calico Stationery kit (which I have since canceled).
Thank you for looking!
