Remember this

Happy Sunday all!!  Hope everyone is having a good weekend.  I'm fighting a bit of a bug here and am hoping it goes away soon.

Anyway, just wanted to share a recent layout.  I created this for a challenge over at the My Scraps & More forum where we were asked to use rub-ons.  I actually have some rub-ons in my stash still but haven't used them in forever!!  I used some faux stitching ones along the top and bottom of the page.

I used the November Main Kit from My Creative Scrapbook to put this page together.

Thanks for stopping by!

Day of Pink - MSAM98

Time for a new sketch challenge at My Scraps & More Sketches.  This one comes to us from Heather Leopard.

And my take using goodies from the September kit from Scrapbook Circle.  I have been trying to use up my kits lately.  The one drawback of kits is that they mix manufacturers when putting them together so I can never keep track of what I am using.  I typically stick to one line when I create pages so it is a bit "out of the box" for me.  So fun though that everything is already matched and put together for you!!

Be sure to visit the MSAM Sketches Blog and see what the rest of the team have created.
