sharing my last layout in my "inspired by photos" series tonight. this one is of megan's oldest daughter, raygan. megan has so many great shots of her … but i really wanted to scrap these photos. they were just fun and funky … just right for a girl her age. i mean, how cute is that jacket!

Raygan

so just like her sister, sayler … no special story behind these photos that i knew of. so the envelope is there for mom to write her a note and tuck inside … for raygan to read down the road someday. once again, basic grey pattern papers … love the red, yellow, and blue together. and the envelope is from the april KOTM. when i printed the photos for this … they turned out a little larger than i planned. i know, i'm the one that entered the sizes … but sometimes i go bigger than i mean too. it left a little less room to play and embellish … but i think it worked out in the end. they were all such cute photos … i wanted to make them all as big as i could. lol!

the border stickers, tab sticker, and label sticker are all creative cafe by creative imaginations. but all the other embellishments are making memories. and how fun are those puffy alpha letters? i love those things. i used some of the clear hearts again … and adhered them to yellow cardstock and then again to white cardstock. i added a rubon to each and then some star brads.

i really hope that raygan and megan like this! i tried to make it a really "cool" page … one that an almost 11 year old (was i right on the age … i'm trying to remember) would like. it's a tough age to please … i know my almost 12 year old keeps telling me that i'm NOT cool … which i know isn't true. lol! anyways … i had a blast playing with all these amazing photos. i want to thank megan once again for sharing her photos with me … and trusting me to do something good with them. it was so nice to feel so inspired  … and it really got my creative juices going. i can't even tell you how much other stuff i have gotten done in the last 2 weeks along with these. once i get in my "zone" … it helps with all the other stuff i have to get done too! i do question how i'll go back to scrapping my average photos after this though. lol!

and i appreciate all the great comments you guys have left me about these layouts! it always means a lot that you all take the time to stop and say "hi". so i came up with what i think is a cool giveaway. actually, i'll have a few … but one of them is a fun idea. anyways … that's all i'm saying for now. come back by tomorrow for the details!

    Laura, I think you could scrapbook in the dark and with your eyes closed and still create wonderful and creative pages. You ROCK!

    Your girl just does not know how cool her Mom is- this is fabulous. Megan takes some awesome photos and you have made that family some great keepsakes! I always love your multi photo layouts. Question for you and sorry if this has already been asked and answered: you both print your own and order prints, what printer do you use to print your photos?

    Great Job as usual. This “series” has really been inspiring. And you are right teenagers are really hard to scrap sometimes, you always want to capture there person. girls are so much easier than boys. Shoot I cannot even get my son to let me take his picture, never mind scrap a page about him!
    Great use of colors! Keep up the good work and I look forward to your next “series” LOL
