Favorite Pages of 2012

I have decided to post my 10 favorite layouts for 2012.  As I was looking through my layouts, I noticed that most of my layouts this past year were of my favorite little person......my beautiful granddaughter, Ava!  The ladies that I scrap with monthly know this, and without a doubt, so do my fellow scrappers at Club Creating Keepsakes.  Hope you enjoy my ten favorite....it was hard to narrow it down to only 10!  Enjoy!

I feel that I should confess that most of my layout ideas & inspiration come from the great challenges on Club Creating Keepsakes website and numerous scrap blogs....too many to mention.  

I feel like I have grown in my scrapbooking over the last few years.  I might not always use the latest style, color, or technique, or have the newest paper, but I love scrapping to preserve our family memories.  

My challenge to myself for 2013 is to finish my daughters' high school & college albums.....they have been so patient.  I am getting closer!  

I am finally getting around to posting to my blog!  I must admit that I haven't scrapped much the last couple of months and realized that I had never posted my last layout for 2012 to my blog.  I scrapped it for a challenge on Creating Keepsakes, Ashley Horton's Sketch It Out for the month of November....like I said it has been a while since I have scrapped, far too long!  

I love the darling photos of Ava and her cousin Brooke and the mix of pink and green, which was taken from the colors in Ava's pajamas.  

My New Year's resolution is to scrap more in 2013!  Also, hoping to keep up with my blog, too!
