It takes 2

I finished this layout several days ago and just now getting it posted to my blog, just not enough hours in the day!   I combined challenges again on Club CK, this time combining only two challenges!  The first challenge was to scrap a companion layout for Project Runway #1.  I had scrapped a layout a couple of months ago of my daughter and granddaughter, and since I like my opposing layouts to match, the challenge from Derva to scrap a companion layout was just the push I needed.  When scrapping a companion layout, I usually scrap with the same colors,  papers, etc!  I decided to use the same Basic Grey as my foundation paper, changing it up a little with a pink/orange color scheme.  The second challenge was Issue #4-create a card, or layout, with a monogram.  



I love the photos on my granddaughter, especially the middle photo, hence the title!  I thought is was so cute, both mommy and daddy getting her dressed to go out for the day!
This is the layout that needed a companion.....thanks, Derva!  As you can see the colors are different, but the design is the same.


Looking forward to the weekend, hoping for cooler weather and much needed rain!  Thanks for looking!

    1. I scanned it from an old Sesame Street book that DH and I read to our daughters years ago. We now read to our granddaughter! Thanks!
