{Scrappy Goodness} Jr Sunshines



Hello! Today I'm sharing a layout I did for Use It Tuesday blog.  I just recently came across their blog.  I can't remember how I got there, it was one of those afternoons when I was clicking on links from blog to blog.  I spent some time reading back post and challenges.  It will become one of my regular reads for sure.  It has so much inspiration and fun challenges.

Currently, they are having a You can't Touch this challenge.  It is a challenge to use something that you have been hoarding in that scrap stash of yours.  This was definitely a hard challenge for me.  I had these great pictures of my daughters at about the same age in the same outfit.  I have been wanting to scrap them for a couple of months now.  I also had some great Echo Park paper line that I was hoarding that would work perfect for this layout and challenge.

I used Echo Park's Little Girl line.  It came out a couple of years ago.  I have been holding on to it because I loved the papers so much I was a little scared to cut into them and mess up.  Plus, I tend to hoard all Echo Park papers.  I have A Walk in the Park and Life is Good that I have yet to use.  I actually used some of the embellishments from A Walk in the Park for this layout.  I also only had four more of the those green flowers left and I forced myself to use them because they were the perfect color.

I'm really happy with how this layout turned out.  It is really simple yet perfect for the little story I wanted to tell about my girls.  I also had a lot of fun participating in the Challenge.  I will be linking up with Use it Tuesday's blog today.






Thanks for stopping by today.
Have a beautiful day! Smiles, Jessica
