 It’s here! My second Inspire and Enable me weekend is here! And I need you to make it work! So go on over to your blog, write about at least one layout you’ve created this past week (include an image for us too oooh and ahhh over, that’s the inspire me part), include a list of credits or show previews of the products you used like I do and make sure everything’s linked up to where everyone can purchase it (that’s the enable me part!), include a link somewhere in your post to this blog post so your readers can join us in the fun too! Then come back here and add your name and the link to your post (please link to the post not to your blog in general) to my Mr. Linky below! You have all weekend to make your post and join in! So let’s start inspiring and enabling! For more of an explanation click here.

What was your inspiration for the layout?s theme or design?

I did this page just for fun, it wasn’t for a challenge or team. My inspiration was the photo. It’s not an amazing picture but it captures something between my girls that I really like. I’ve wanted to use it for a long time, had started layouts with it before but was never happy with the direction the pages were going.

Wasn?t that great?! Thank you for checking out my blog today, I hope this layout has inspired you to mix and match some great products, and stretch your creativity! Please click on the layout above and leave this great scrapper some love!
