Lasting Memories #282

Hello everyone! I hope that you are enjoying your weekend. We have had another beautiful weekend around here, filled with lots of time outdoors. I can't wait until we can have the doors and windows open all the time!

We have a new challenge up over on the Lasting Memories blog today. Since it is almost March 1st, we have a new theme and a new set of challenges for you to work with. Our theme for March is, "Welcome to the Oscars" and our first challenge is, "Glitter and Glam". We want to see lots of glitter, bling, gems, etc. on your layout!

I made a layout to add to my daughter's wedding album...yeah, still working on that one 4 years later! I'll get this album finished eventually!

One of Abby's all time favorite Disney movies is Beauty And The Beast. Once it was released on video, she would watch it at least once a day, and she had it memorized and would act it out from beginning to end - wrapping her Minnie Mouse blanket around her shoulders for her cape - all the time! One of her favorite scenes is when Gaston lifts the girls up on the bench. I don't remember who suggested this at her wedding, but Shawn and his buddies were happy to re-create the scene - at least their version, it's kind of the opposite, but it was fun for Abby to live out her favorite scene.

I used a sketch from Scrapbook Generation's February 2016 downloads. I wanted to keep the overall design pretty simple with the focus on the photos. I used her wedding colors and some metallic gold paper and gold glitter letters. That metallic paper reminded of the oscar trophy given out to the winners. That metallic paper is also a challenge to get a good photo of! I will add some hidden journaling telling the story of these photos.

Head on over to the Lasting Memories blog to see the layouts from the rest of the team. I hope that you'll play along with our challenge this week. I would love to see your glitter and glam pages!

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a beautiful day!
