I'm confident you will enjoy what we do and be very happy with the projects you make! I had a hard time choosing photos for these layouts because I honestly had SO MANY that would work.  Red and blue are our high school's colors, red and blue look great with just about anything boyish, and I just think red, yellow and blue are perfect Summer or patriotic colors too. 

After the layout photos, you'll find the shopping list.  Keep reading...

Layout #1: You Anchor Me Back Down. This was the perfect layout for photos of my honey, Dan-the-Man and I. He truly is my anchor...not in a weigh me down kind of a way, but a keep me grounded kind of way.  We have been through great times in our 28 years together, and we have weathered a few tough times (unemployment for a year and a half). 

Layout #1: You Anchor Me Back Down (one 7" x 5" photo and four 2 1/4" x 2 1/4" photos)

Layout #1: with photos.  Photo tip: When using photos from lots of different occasions as I did on this layout, printing then in black and white or sepia helps create a sense of continuity.

Layout #2: Adventure Awaits.  I know the second I saw these papers I was going to do a layout of our grandson, Street.  He is a heart breaker and I knew I had several to die for photos of him in colors that would look great on this layout.  Admit it. He's a cute patootie!

Layout #2: Adventure Awaits (one 9" x 5" photo and three 5" x 3 1/2" photos)

Layout #2: With photos

Layout #3:  On the Go.  This layout was perfect for the photos of Dawson's recent high school graduation. He graduated on May 23 and will be leaving this week, June 19 for his 2 year church mission to Sydney, Australia (speaking Spanish!).  I'd say that qualifies as "on the go."

Layout #3: On the Go (two 6" x 4" photos, one 4" x 6" photo and four 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" photos)
