Here is layout #21 using the May Scraptastic Kits... picture of my son and his new dog... they are and will be forever pals... it's so cute ... my son went canoeing for 1 week and I thought the dog was gonna go nuts when he first saw him when he got home it was so funny it sounded like he was crying he was so happy... we made sure the reunion was outside cause he is a puppy... still kinda makes a mess when happy LOL.

Here is the #20 layout using the May Scraptastic Kits, it took me 36 minutes to complete. This is a picture of my grandson, he is so funny every morning he gets up and puts his ball cap on his head... always seems to put it on side ways or backwards and he doesn't take it off all day... I mainly used the leftover diecuts from the kit and one little strip of pattern paper (although the background is a pattern paper), I then used a mist with a paintbrush and outlined just outside the photo so it would give it dimension...

Here is the #19th layout using the May Scraptastic Kits, it took 33 minutes to complete. This picture is of Caitlin and one of her teammates, these grow huge bonds as they need to trust them 100%.
This layout consists mainly of die cuts and one small piece of pattern paper, my goal was to try and use up as many embellishments as I could.

Here is the #18th layout using the May Scraptastic Kits, it took 52 minutes to complete. This is a picture of my daughter during a competition and being a Mom, I cheer as much as they do... Here is a link to their last competition (May 2014) and they won first place which meant a lot as this was Caitlin's last competition as she retired.

This is layout #17 using the May Scraptastic Kits, it took 1 hour to complete. This is a picture of my daughter's cheerleading team.



I didn't like the patterned background so covered it with gesso then added some color using the Hero Arts Dauber in Pale tomato... the rest of embellies came from the May Scraptastic kits...

Here is layout #15 using the May Scraptastic Kits... it is a picture of our new puppy well when he was 8 weeks old... so stinkin' cute... how fast they grow... Our Golden Retriever which we had since he was a puppy past away last October and my son was devastated... he could not remember a day without his dog (my son was only 2 when we got the dog).  After 5 months Mom finally cave and agreed to get another puppy... this time a Goldendoodle (1/2 Golden Retriever and 1/2 Poodle). He is my son's best friend and NEVER leaves his side, it's quite cute... So here is some pictures of the layout...

Here is the layout #14 using the May Scraptastic Kits... now that I've done the 5 layouts for the July Member spotlight I will finish uploading the rest of the pages for the May Scraptastic Kits... This photo is of my daughter and her stunt group... she had the same group for about 4 years and I just want to document the trust that these athletes have to have in each other. They literally have her life in their hands... that girl has enough x-rays at the hospital to rebuild her body with them... we've had a few scares over the years... she was just diagnosed with Scoliosis which can be caused by extreme trauma which I don't have a doubt in my mind--- Cheerleading was the cause but it is a sport that she loved for years and we tried to support her in it... but has a mom I'm so glad she retired at the rip old age of 21 LOL. Hopefully she won't have to live with back aches all her life :(

Here are a few photos of the layout:
