700th Post!!!!

As I started this post I saw this this is my 700th post....wowzers!  That is unbelievable!  I remember starting this blog in 2011 somewhat reluctantly.  I honestly did not think I had the time or the content to blog.  Well, obviously that is not true.  While I post mostly my crafty projects on here I love being able to share with my readers a part of my life.  So THANK YOU for stopping by and sharing a little bit of me.
 
I think this calls for a celebration!!  Leave me a comment and tell me how long you have been blogging or crafting and I will enter you in a drawing for a $20 gift card to the shop of your choice.  It can be anywhere....Starbucks, Scrapbook.com, Michaels, Old Navy.  It is your choice.  It is just my way of saying "Hey, thanks for stopping by."
 
Now on to the business at hand.....I actually created a wedding layout today from MY wedding.  Okay, I know I was married 11+ years ago but I am in the process of re-doing my wedding album.  The first one I started in the 8.5x11 format when I first got into scrapping and wanted to color coordinate the pages and have them 12x12.
 
 
I used this sketch (Pansy #1) from Scrapbook Steals Mid-Week Mojo:
 
 
Instead of two 4x6 pictures I used one 4x6 and two 3x3 photos.
The page tells of our ride up and down the Vegas with the Elvis impersonator that married us.  We got married in 2003....good times.
 
Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to leave me a comment so your name can go in the drawing for a gift card....who doesn't LOVE shopping on someone else's dime?
