WANNA WINNA RAK???

Welcome to "Don't Quote Me" Thursdays where inspiration is taken from QUOTATIONS inspired from song lyrics, ancient proverbs, famous sayings and more.

The first inspiration this month comes from a Scottish Dramatist and Novelist best known as the creator of Peter Pan (1860-1937), James Matthew Barrie.

QUOTE: Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others, cannot keep it from themselves.

My example below features a layout of my son. He makes me so very happy and is such an amazing little guy (gush). I cut the centre out of the scallop die cut circle and used it to symbolize the sun.


Interpret the quote however you like and post your projects back here (or EMAIL them to me) BEFORE next Thursday for your chance to win.

Everyone who completes all 4 of my "Don't Quote Me" Thursday Challenges for the month of July will be entered into a drawing for a sweet RAK!
