I got a box in the mail the other day, and I was a bit surprised. I mean everything that I had ordered lately was already here ... lol. I got it home and opened it to see a letter inside, it was from my cousin Michelle. This is what I got ...
I got 8 double page layout, ready for pictures and a scrap book to put them in. She remembered reading on my blog that I want to make scrapbooks for the boys and myself, so she figured she would send me some of her extra layouts. What a thoughtful gift, since I cannot scrapbook at all, and was wondering where to start!! Now I can CASE some of her layouts with my own papers to keep creating. She even has instructions and pictures sizes on some pages to help me out :)
THANK YOU MICHELLE !!
Beautiful card! Didn't think I'd need that punch, but maybe I do. TFS Hugs!!

What do you mean you can't scrapbook? Looks like you're not telling the truth Julie! These layouts look great! I think you can do whatever you set your mind to....

What a precious cousin you have. Sometimes all we need is a little help getting started on something. With your talent, I'm sure this is the jump start you needed. Now you go girl and make it your own!!!
