Lasting Memories #283 - Future Mr and Mrs

Hello everyone! Happy Sunday to you! I hope that you are all enjoying your weekend. We have had a busy one around here. We kept Miss Ada over night on Friday, and my goodness, she can wear you out! Add to that the fact that it's been beautiful outside and we have been spending every spare minute out in it! I can't believe that my daffodils are already blooming - it's usually late March or April before they make an appearance.

We have a new challenge for you this week over on the Lasting Memories blog. The theme for March is "Welcome to the Oscars", and this week's challenge is anything goes with and "Oscar" theme. 

For my layout I was inspired by the gold statue - gold foil hearts, the glitter and glam - red glitter heart and bling hearts, the attire, particularly the tuxedos - black and white background, and lastly I made a little seal with an initial to represent the seal on the envelope.

This layout is of Abby and Shawn the year before they were married. It was Abby's birthday and my sister snapped this photo of them at her birthday party. They look so happy and in love in this photo.

I used this week's sketch from Sketches In Thyme. I just couldn't resist playing along with it!

I used the awesome Simple Stories new collection - Life In Color - for this layout. I am in love with this collection. I bought almost every single embellishment, along with the 12x12 collection of paper and the 6x6 paper pad, and I can already tell I am going to want more of it! The colors are so pretty and so are the patterns. Since this sketch had lots of little layers behind the photo, I used papers from the 6x6 paper pad.

Be sure to check out the sketch at Sketches In Thyme - you have until the end of the month to play along with it!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Head on over to the Lasting Memories blog to see the beautiful layouts from the rest of the design team. I do hope you have some time to play along with us this month!

Have a beautiful day!
