Thankful for good friends

It's so nice to know that you have good friends to talk to, to sort out your problems with, to forget your problems with, or just hang out and smile and laugh. On Friday night I got together with many of my scrapbooking friends for a few hours and we had a great time together getting glued up, sharing stories of our lives. This is not a layout I did that night, but it does show how thankful I am for my dear friend June.

3 things I like:
1) I like that the colours represent us here - these are very June and Ang colours.... it could only be made more perfect by adding some teal and pink.
2) Changing a photo from colour to sepia - I don't do that very often, but this photo we both looked drunk (which we were not) our cheeks were so red. Cooking a turkey can make a person flushed.
3) Meaningful journaling - if you don't have journaling, it's not done!

Be Happy

Jen took this photo of me before (?) we went to the 50s diner in her car. It was kind of random, but I liked it, so thought I would do a quick one-pager. This took about 40 minutes from start to finish, inspiration from October 2010 Scrapbook Trends.

3 things I like:
1) Sassafras border stickers - They are so easy, go with nearly everything and add a perfect finish.
2) Felt - it softens everything
3) October Afternoon word stickers - I have 4 sheets of these. Also a very versatile product. The "My Bliss" and "photo taken by:" stickers are from these sheets.
