you might have seen this

i cannot tell you how excited i was to see this come out over the weekend.

those aren't my kids. but that IS my layout! some of you might remember this layout i did for megan, using her super cute halloween photos of her youngest two kiddos. i was thrilled when i got an email from creating keepsakes about featuring it on the cover of the october issue. i was totally honored to be asked. i also have another layout inside, for the becky higgins sketch. it's one that i just love, that managed to get 16 of the daycare kids i've had onto a 2 page layout. it means a lot to me, and i'll share it here another day. in the meantime, make sure to pick up this issue if you don't have it yet. it's packed with great ideas and awesome layouts. one of the best issues this year. and i'm not just saying that because they put me on the cover 😉

    yay Laura! That is sooo cool!
    I love opening Scrapbook Trends or Cards or any other magazine and seeing your stuff. I can almost spot your items now even before I look at who created it.
    Keep up the good work! Congrats!

    Am glad that CK finally got around to putting your layouts in their magazine – and on the cover. Your style rocks! Keep up the good work! I’ll have to wait another couple of months before that issue even arrives in NZ shops – we are soooo far behind!
