September 28, 2010 - Julie Howard posts two totally random layouts on Nikki Sivils' blog
It's truly a day for the history books. I believe this post calls for paid time off work, cookouts and, dare I say it? Fireworks.
Yes. I *am* one strange bird. I make no excuses for it. In order to survive the craziness of day to day life, I attempt to find the humor in everything. If I can't laugh at the absurdity of some situations, I could just as easily find myself in tears. So in my life, I've learned to keep a light heart and to laugh!
Oh... and if it wasn't obvious, I used the My Friend Birdie
collection for this layout. The letters are from some other manufacturers which I will not mention here. Bwah!
Now for the next layout, you'll be very surprised at the two collections I mixed. I decided to use:
Boo-tiful and Blueberry Hill
See... I told you I was a strange bird. But seriously! Don't they look fabulous together?!
This is my niece, Chelsea. Clearly, she has a flair for the dramatic. Nooooo idea where she gets that from. Whenever she visits her Grandma's house she always leaves behind a new message on the chalkboard in the kitchen. This "I will be discovered" note was left for her Grandma this past May. Years from now we'll all be able to look back on this and say, 'We knew her when.'
Just as years from now you'll be able to look back on this date in history and say, 'Hey! September 28, 2010 is the date that Julie Howard posted two completely random layouts to Nikki Sivils' blog!'
