'When Ive got the challenge I liked a lot, mostly because Spring is my favorite season...but is still too far to happen.
Here it starts on Sept 23rd only ;)
So I used a picture taken during last Spring and talked about what this season means to me and things that usually happens in Brazil by Sept, like a big national holiday (ok...its a bit before Spring, but it alwys remind us the season is close!).
Hope you enjoy this challenge too and Im curious to see your takes on this one!'

Meet our April Guest Designer - Julie


Here's a little bit about Julie:-

Hi, I'm Julie, I live in Blakeney in Gloucestershire with my husband Jason, together we have a gorgeous little boy - Harrison who's 3 and we are expecting our second little one mid May. I discovered Scrapbooking in December 2008 but have only properly got into it in the last few months. I love to create mini albums and 12x12 layouts [mainly of my little monkey]. I absolutly love everything about scrapbooking and am completely addicted, for me each layout tells a story and it's so much fun recording memories and special moments that without this wonderful hobby I may well forget in the future.
