And here is another layout with a photo of my daughter Nicole and her cousin Adrienne. They were at the end of a tunnel slide. I used lots of old chipboard elements and buttons on this one. And I"m linking it to the October challenge over at "Scrap It Girl". She wanted us to use 12 or more buttons. If you need challenge inspiration to get some of your photo's scrapped ... then you can check out my Scrapbook Challenge Blog List HERE.

Hi Melissa,
I get so excited when people share a layout with us at Word Art Wednesday!!! Your layout is beautiful. Love the soft colors and the lace, doilies, pearls and vellum butterflies...such romantic touches. Congrats to your in-laws for 48 years of marriage. Thanks for blessing us at Word Art Wednesday this week.
Such a sweet picture, and all that purple is just divine. Love the flower of buttons, and just embellished SO wonderfully. Thanks for sharing this, Melissa. It's darling.
Have a blessed week, and keep creating....love it!

Beautiful layouts, Melisa. I especially love the first one. I love hearing about a couple staying together for so long! Unusual nowadays. Such a blessing! And I do love that verse. One of the first verses my little one memorized.
