Last Chance to Win a RAK!

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

This week, your inspiration will come from a very famous quote by Albert Camus.

QUOTE:
Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow.
Don't walk behind me, I may not lead.
Just walk beside me and be my friend.


Interpret the quote however you like and post your projects back here or email them to me at TARA ORR before the end of the month to qualify for a sweet RAK!

I will be keeping track of everyone who completes my daily inspirations. Everyone who completes all 4 of my "Don't Quote Me" Thursday inspirations for the month of July will be entered into a drawing for a sweet RAK!

Can I Get a Double Double?

UGH - I HATE Double layouts!! I started this layout yesterday while at a freind's crop and it just WASN'T doing it for me - the papers weren't coming together at all -I couldn't get the composition of the layout the way I wanted it - VERY frustrating!!

Worked on it a little more at home and finally it started looking not too shabby! I can honestly say that this is only the 2nd double layout I have ever done. I was given an extra push from Noel Mignon's blog Challenge which encourages you to tackle a 2 pager!

I ended up inking the chipboard pieces and then doing a little doodling to resemble some stitching.

Some fun pinwheel flowers - a great way to use up some of your scrap papers!


I used an old buckle loop to insert my journaling tag which reads: While your brother and sister were still napping, you had the swings all to yourself! July '09.
