Krissy will share some of her own layouts with us throughout the month and explain the stories behind them, a technique she used, where she found the inspiration, etc.  I know I am looking forward to hearing her comments about her very talented work!

OK - for some of these I'm hopping in my "wayback machine" and pulling up some old memories...Josie will remember this one...it's a two page spread that I did up at Scrapfest - the first time Josie and I hung out.  This was landmark for me in SO many ways...the first time I really discovered Basic Grey, the first LO I used my first electronic die cutter (anyone remember the Xyron XPC?) AND the first time I ever used Prima Flowers on a LO.  

Back then it was hard for me to remember to get pictures of Jackson and I together.  The one on "A Mother's Love" was taken at a friend's bridal shower.  It was right after I FINALLY lost all the baby weight from Jackson and got my hair cut short short for the first time.  The picture on "is eternal" was taken at that same friend's wedding four months later.  It was taken by Mary Todd the last time that I ever saw her before she passed away three weeks later.  So I knew the layout had to be extra special because of those things...

Enjoy these from September 2006

Those are beautiful, Krissy!  I can see how your layouts have evolved and changed too...both are great, but in different ways!  Isn't that cool to see how our styles evolve?

Fast forward to January 2007.  I had just discovered the art of "scraplifting" I had seen a LO in my Scrap Etc magazine that I thought would be PERFECT for this sweet picture of Jackson and my Daddy.  My father is the frozen food manager at a local grocery store, we had stopped by on our way to get Jack's Christmas photos taken and I was able to snap this photo of the two of them in daddy's aisle.  The grocery chain actually used this pic in a local advertisement the following year!  It was SO worth all of the love that I put into the LO to highlight it.

The progression moves forward - as I look through my albums, this one stands out as one that is the next leap forward...when I first discovered CHIPBOARD!!!  And its also the first LO that I used the cardstock framing on - a technique that is still a favorite today!  Besides - this picture is totally priceless!
