Back To School

It's end of September so I'm sure many of you have some cute back to school pics just waiting to be scrapped. So I thought I'd share a couple LO's I made using the adorable brand new ABC Primer collection by Graphic 45. I used the Paper Lovelies October Kit for these layouts.

Also, just wanted to let you guys know that I'm having a couple big giveaways for my recent birthday, and I'll be picking the two winners on 10/1 - for more info see HERE.

First up, "An ABC Primer"....yep, that's me!



And the second LO is DD on the first day of school a few weeks ago:




For this 2nd LO, I had to adjust the photo's colors in Picasa. The colors in the original photo were too bright and modern, so I had to "antique" it a bit...see:

Kind of cool, right? :) Facebook
