Good morning everyone, and welcome to my layout for this week's
Lasting Memories challenge. This month's theme is the Design Team's Favorite challenges from 2023, and today we are revisiting a challenge from September 17 - Stash Busting: Layering - create a layout with lots and lots of layering, and use brads, buttons or bling, or even better all three if you can. I chose to use buttons with some photos of our family posing with the cardboard cut-outs at a Mexican restaurant. I took a risk with the color combo by using some colors that aren't found in my photos, so hopefully it came out okay. This is the last Lasting Memories challenge for December, so we would love to have you play along and share your layout based on this and any other challenges from this month.

ReplyDelete❤️❤️❤️ I didn't know that Knott's Berry Farm has a Fiesta Village. This little girl reminds me of Lucy from the Peanuts gang (shhh... this shows my age a bit - LOL!) Thank you for playing with us at Park Hopping My Happy Place. 🎄🎁Merry Christmas! Makira
