Why thank you so much for thinking my layout is worthy of this thread Fran - I feel honoured!

Doris' layouts are always amazing, and this one has that "tug at your heartstrings" quality that is so difficult to achieve. Great work Doris (cheecheongfun). I love it.

[TalyQ]

Thank you for the honour. I must give lots of credit to my oldest daughter who photographed this. It just seemed to perfect for this kit.

[cheecheongfun]

thank you Fran for nominating my LO for this thread. I want to say all your layouts should be in this thread for inspiration.

[dogartist]

Oh gosh, thank you Gail...I am so humbled to be nominated - there are some great LOs here!!!!

[sailingsue]

This LO by Bao is a perfect example of a LO that so captures the spirit of this little boy. The photo is fantastic, beautifully exposed and the WA is done so creatively with the highlighting of the "me" to make such an excellent tie in to the whole LO. Love the simplicity of the gorgeous LO!!!!!
