The Month of April

For the month of April I have been real busy with my creative side. I decided I was going to do Project Life and let me say I love it so much. It give me a chance to get back to my scrap booking because I know I haven't been doing it for years. I know one company has been selling the binders and the page protectors with the paper to match each design and the company is Becky Higgins Designs. I bought the clementine binder
and I love it so much,its very cute and colorful. I also bought the page protectors to go with it. Inside the binder its this insert
and I think its so true to stick to that motto so that is what I plan to do.

The image I chose is called daddy's lil girl and I just fell in love with the image. So go check out the blog and see what the other people in the team came up with. Also submit your card that you came up with in the challenege and have the chance to win One Free Robert Jackson Digi, A GD Spot and  a $15.00 Gift Certificate from this week's sponsor Oozak!
