All about numbers

Hey everyone, it's Amy and I'm thrilled to be hosting the blog this week.  I'll be sharing lots of cool stuff this week, so make sure you check it out!

I wanted to start with a challenge for the week.  Because the July kit had that fabulous number paper from The Girls' Paperie in it, this week's challenge is all about numbers.  I had planned to do a progressive number challenge...one piece of cardstock, two photos, three pieces of patterned paper, etc, but when creating my layout, it totally took a different route.  So the challenge is this:

Create a layout/project/card that is inspired by numbers.

Yep, you pretty much have free reign with this challenge.  Just incorporate numbers somehow and you're all set!

Here is the layout I created.  It's about being a mom for the past 11 years.  I used, of course, the amazing July kit.  That means I've created 5 layouts and 2 cards with the kit and I still have stuff left.  That's a LOT of stuff for $24!!

I totally channeled my inner Michelle Alynn Clement for this layout.  Her work is just the most amazing ever.  Scroll down a few posts to see what she created with July's kit, I promise you won't be disappointed.  Here's a closeup:


I can't wait to see what you create!  Put your creation into our gallery and link us up here.

I'll be back with sneaks from the gorgeous August kit.  I promise you will NOT be disappointed with this kit.  And the buttons...oh the buttons.  I am totally hoarding mine. :)

Happy Monday!!
