DCWV July Stackaholic Challenge

Hi Folks!  I wanted to share with you my July Stackaholic submission!

This is the sketch for July, I was suppose to follow.



Here is my submission.

I used cardstock from my favorite stack, Dots, Strips and Plaids and of course the plain cardstock  stack.  Then I used my grandson, Lestat's 3 month pictures to really set this layout off.  

I hope you enjoy it and if you ever want to play along stop by their blog at



Blessings!

This was a perfect time for me to do this project.  We just got back from vacation and went to the Newport Aquarium in Kentucky.  We are raising my 8 year old grandson so we took him and his friend.  They had a blast and believe it or not, choose the aquarium over an amusement park.  I just had to do a layout to remember the day.



 The cut files are from Treasure Box Designs.  While I use all AC cardstock for cardstock and the water paper is Recollections.  I created the title in SCAL 4 pro.

Here is some close ups.




Thank you for joining me on the hop and please leave a message. I love to read them!  I will answer any and all comments!
