Year of the Rabbit

When Pink Cricut announced on Imagine Nation Monday that the theme was Chinese New Year and that 2011 was the year of the rabbit I immediately knew what layout I wanted to make. My father raised rabbits for years when I was a child, but I only have these 4 pictures which were developed in February 1960. I used the pagoda cricut cartridge to make the temple and dragon.

This layout also will be entered in the Scrappin-n-cattin challenge to use the words New or Year in the title.

First Layout of 2011

I finally got my mojo back and created my first layout for 2011. This is my cousin's daughter Angela. Angela's wedding photographer had a contest for the favorite out of the photographer's top 20 pictures. I'm happy to say Angela's picture won. This layout is for the Scrappin-n-chattin challenge to use a white background.
