[Audrey]

I really want to try this, but I have to decide between 12 LOs with 1 per month or all 12 months in 1 LO. Or do I do one 12 month layout of each of my kids? I really like the idea of a whole album like Sharon made. I sure hope I can make up my mind soon.

[lilysmama]

Here is my first OnE layout EVER!
Lily's 2006 Year in Review CD Tin Album (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=156504&nocache=1) (wow! that is quite a title, eh? haha!)
This is probably one of my favorite things I've ever made! Thanks for a great challenge - it was easy since I had already made this as a Christmas gift! :)

[reneeshannon]

Here's my try at it!

[the3chickens]

LOL Audrey - decisions, decisions, decisions :D Look forward to seeing your LOs whichever way you decide to have them done :)

Posting bonuses have been PM'd to reneeshannon and lilysmama. Thanks, ladies - very lovely LOs!!!

[LindaSH85]

Started doing this for a CD album for family but didn't finish in time. Sooooo, I guess this is the time to get it all done. But I wasn't using DSP kits, just plain bgs with superimposed shapes like snowflakes or hearts or whatever. So, will have to re-do a few things. But all in all, this is going to be a good way to get a nice Valentine's gift finished - one that is NOT at all expected - tee hee.:lol:

[Bocca]

Here is my first layout for Odds'n'Ends challenge. http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=156585&nocache=1 Thanks for the word art, Ann.

A YEAR in review??? I'm lucky if I can remember what year it is now!!!! This is going to require a lot of thinking...and referring to my calendar.

[pspcandee]

That was easier than I thought...lol. 2006 - A Year in Review (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=159087&cat=3365)

Wow, Candee, if it took you just slightly over an hour to do a "lot of thinking", you must be churning out dozens of the 'easy ones' :D
