National Scrap Book Day

Hi Everyone, I'm sorry I've not been around much lately.   We were taking care of our friend's 16 year old Yorkie for a week.  He is an absolute sweetheart but he is blind and deaf so I didn't want to do anything but keep an eye on him.  Other than those two problems he is very healthy and darling. So our house was filled with three Yorkies for a whole week and I was totally thrilled.

Well today is the 21st year of celebrating National Scrapbook Day and Deedee Anderson is having a challenge to honor this day. We are calling this "Lift A Design Team Card"   Some of  Deedee's DT have made either a scrapbook page or a card and we are asking you to CASE this page or case the layout to make a card.  We just ask that you use one of Deedee's images, sentiments or papers.    I have made a page with my two Yorkies, Molly & Daisey using some of Deedee Anderson's digi paper.
I used some of the paper from the "Traditional Ornamental" set.  I also printed out three of the ornaments from that set in sizes that would fit into my hearts and oval punches.  I added two candy cane brads that I've had for years to the right side.  My journal, which you can not read because of my poor photography skills,  tells about the time our babies went to get groomed and Dasiey, being the shy one, automatically ducked down as soon as she was put into the Santa basket.  As you can see I've also added some corner punches on my focal image and the outer edges of the page.  I thought that Deedee's ornament digital paper was just perfect for this picture.  I thank you for stopping by to visit and I hope you get a chance to play along with our challenge.  It will be running from May 2nd - May 9th so you have a whole week to enter.  There will be a winner picked and Deedee is offering a $21.00 gift card to her store and also a Guest Design Team spot. She is also offering a 21% discount off everything in her store this week to everyone.     (21 in honor of the 21st year of National Scrapbook day)   I can't wait to see what you come up with.

  1. Donna, first of all your Yorkies are both adorable, and I have to chuckle at the way Daisey ducked down into the basket, yet she was still able to see what was going on! That's too cute, and I love not only the photo and story, I love the page you created to always remember that precious moment in time! I love the ornaments in the hearts and especially the photo corners - something I have plenty of in my stash and rarely ever use them! Happy NSD, and have a great weekend too!
