A great big shoutout and a few layouts!

Yesterday was a VERY BIG day for my niece! She and her softball team won the Pony National Championship. They are the national champions in the 14U girls division. They won all 10 games they played in the tournament...and she pitched in every one of their qualifying games! I couldn't be prouder of her... WTG Sammy Girl!



I wanted to share a layout with you that I created for GCD Studios. Scrapbooking and Beyond magazine has the complete set of directions on their website.



Here is a few details...



My favorite pictures to scrap are always beach and pool photos...I have always loved the water. I just got these new AC papers and had to play. The kids have spent a ton of time playing in the pool this year so I have tons of pictures to use for them.



A few details...



I cut out some waves and then added some vintage glitter...I just love how it looks, so shimmery.



Well, gotta run! Off to bed! Thanks so much for popping by!
