Back in the day week and updates - Day1

Good morning everyone!! Kel and I had so much fun with our very first blog hop. Thanks again Rhonda, you did a fantastic job getting this together!! We have a chosen a winner via Random.org, a big Congrats to Judy over at http://athomewithjudy.blogspot.com/ please go on over and check out her blog, so much fun and awesome work. Judy please email me, lbaires@comcast.net and we will get the vinyl out to you. Welcome to all our new followers, we hope you will hang around!! The theme this week is back in the day week. Kel and I (and Dawn) have a bunch of pictures from back in the day and are trying to get them scrapped. These are pictures are of my Mom. I think she was 6 or 7 in the photos and they are two of my favorite pictures of her. This is crinkly ribbon I got over at http://craftspotbykimberly.blogspot.com/ I first saw this ribbon on Kate's blog and fell in love with it. Customer service is awesome, I ordered on Thursday and had it by Saturday and I had to use it. I just love. This little tag came from the K& Company Life's Journey paper stack. Awesome stack!! All the paper I used on this layout came from that paper stack. The ribbon under the picture is from Graphic45 Vintage Ribbon, Heritage Cricut Cart, page 47 was used for the Mother title. The flowers are from my stash. We have some fun, fun projects to show you this week. Thanks again for joining our blog hop!!

  4. This layout is so beautiful, I've seen it in person and it really does have that great vintage feel. The pictures are just adorable too. All the colors just work so well together. The background paper looks like a wallpaper you may have seen back in the day. Fantastic job on this Laurie..just fantastic!
