Meaning, spring is just around the corner. Even though our winter has been surprisingly great so far, I want warmth and sunshine!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">This month's challenge is ready and waiting for you at <a href="https://scrap-challenge-yourself.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Challenge YOUrself</a>.

I am a follower and huge fan of Kacy Allensworth. She is known as the Calorie Deficit Queen. She arranged a ladies fitness retreat in Costa Rica, and I was all over it! I didn't hesitate to join in. Meeting her in person was the highlight of the year for me, and visiting beautiful Costa Rica was incredible! It was all more than I ever imagined.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">For this layout I used an older scrapbook kit by <i>Hip Kit Club</i>.

Another year down just like that. </div><div style="text-align: center;">I'm looking forward to making this year the best one yet.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">For this new year's first challenge at <a href="https://scrap-challenge-yourself.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Challenge YOUrself </a>it's that "one little word" created by <i>Ali Edwards</i>. The concept is to choose a word that's important to you. A word to focus on, to live with and to reflect upon throughout your daily life for the entire year. It can be a very powerful thing.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">My chosen word is "organize" and here is my layout for inspiration.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0y4MOUms1xlrJ8v587cioFTCII2HTKXdweWDs5htHziq6IdZNR_3xi5kUVHcUHXVKOm9ydiHzE2jOL5emcJxTG-YH72Eu7rq2NP_YF2PYGDwQtlFE9UsPByuhc0Finy-ckGUcmbICGKBY9ci-_DSPx-tbTR9y3L8bbbJwCu3P08dZa7LveNL_2TAbDR_S/s2048/cy121.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0y4MOUms1xlrJ8v587cioFTCII2HTKXdweWDs5htHziq6IdZNR_3xi5kUVHcUHXVKOm9ydiHzE2jOL5emcJxTG-YH72Eu7rq2NP_YF2PYGDwQtlFE9UsPByuhc0Finy-ckGUcmbICGKBY9ci-_DSPx-tbTR9y3L8bbbJwCu3P08dZa7LveNL_2TAbDR_S/w640-h640/cy121.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /> </div><div style="text-align: center;">I do not like clutter and I feel that there is a place for everything. If not, then it has to go. It seems I have started to accumulate unnecessary items and now it's now time to purge and reorganize. I'm going to start with the kitchen and move room to room. It will be a great winter project.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">For this layout I just used a mixture of miscellaneous items from my stash. I'm forever trying to dwindle it down. For my quote, I found it on Google and just printed the image. I love how it turned out. Now to actually follow through and stick to my organizing plan. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgChoPohVa7FCd21SrKlOB4fOmpCFGEkJFEbLdeGaZAkXV5GU919dKtJwA-rOFf3sc3ZlrEjB058riSRnlCrJfUkYDYflohN3Ly2nctRTsEUY7X5ZariOstf7m4J-f8WnHvJQOCyzyDvbIho-SQjQ0Da4vMhK5Wpu2r2qQcbKsuDikWNGnGtXqroXsr6r4Q/s1200/cy121.1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgChoPohVa7FCd21SrKlOB4fOmpCFGEkJFEbLdeGaZAkXV5GU919dKtJwA-rOFf3sc3ZlrEjB058riSRnlCrJfUkYDYflohN3Ly2nctRTsEUY7X5ZariOstf7m4J-f8WnHvJQOCyzyDvbIho-SQjQ0Da4vMhK5Wpu2r2qQcbKsuDikWNGnGtXqroXsr6r4Q/w400-h400/cy121.1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Now it's your turn!

Please take me back! Ugh, I just hate the wintertime. When I was creating this layout it gave me all the warm thoughts and feelings. Just what I needed on these cold Indiana days. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">For this layout I searched my paper scrap stash and choose matching prints/colors to accommodate my theme. I used my heart paper punch and randomly placed them, with the sketch in mind. I then added some miscellaneous accents and DONE!

Where did July go? I felt like I missed it. I'm just not liking how fast our summer is flying by.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I think you know what it means when a new month is upon us... it's time for a new challenge at <a href="https://scrap-challenge-yourself.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Challenge YOUrself</a>. "Dressed to Impress" is the theme! We want you to create a layout about getting dressed up for a special occasion, for any occasion. It doesn't have to be only the fancy ones.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Here is mine for inspiration.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9_xFudsfs16ZYDa2g7t1Oh3FT5EALjmYh5n6p6fRcuykUX--PXxSiJ6JhummYmCH4gj9ANitNDVikWJ_CsnE_59Dqloc--mqn8bbzPrFS3QzgNBunwcr4arYt6iDeIkbSs-G6TghJbfpFa6TOpj-yKNp2ie84yPSGH80hJSCycbkKVGvhARQwCFAGsRn0/s1804/CY116..jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1804" data-original-width="1804" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9_xFudsfs16ZYDa2g7t1Oh3FT5EALjmYh5n6p6fRcuykUX--PXxSiJ6JhummYmCH4gj9ANitNDVikWJ_CsnE_59Dqloc--mqn8bbzPrFS3QzgNBunwcr4arYt6iDeIkbSs-G6TghJbfpFa6TOpj-yKNp2ie84yPSGH80hJSCycbkKVGvhARQwCFAGsRn0/w640-h640/CY116..jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I'm a huge fan of Bridgerton on Netflix and when this event came to the Chicagoland area I was on it!! My friend and I had so much fun!! It felt like we were actually at a Queen's ball. One of the best parts was dressing up for the occasion. We felt so fancy. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">For this layout I used papers and embellishments by <i>Pinkfresh</i>. The colors were the perfect match. I also had so many pictures, making it was hard to choose which ones to use. I ended up making a photo collage to compact them into one. I really love how it turned out. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgbPO4OVzYxabA1d1U35_4wyOheSi_wCEd9etyIk2rwLsjdY8yxceakSaTRRJkAAUL5GUA4MuAl_brAP6KYZ4wwwaTfIGA5JIWcfiIbcxJ14Edly2xYNQZMkHKyReNVkbdtL3GK2aouRM2ed40QKAlL9KVH5AbfniP_-MXRdZINQO-RZLlKsRMY5XdtVkI/s1200/cy116.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1200" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgbPO4OVzYxabA1d1U35_4wyOheSi_wCEd9etyIk2rwLsjdY8yxceakSaTRRJkAAUL5GUA4MuAl_brAP6KYZ4wwwaTfIGA5JIWcfiIbcxJ14Edly2xYNQZMkHKyReNVkbdtL3GK2aouRM2ed40QKAlL9KVH5AbfniP_-MXRdZINQO-RZLlKsRMY5XdtVkI/w400-h400/cy116.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Now it's your turn.

It's going very well my way. Been rather busy actually and that is why my post is a bit late. I still have my Christmas tree up too. Ha! That's okay, all those twinkling lights make me smile.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I've got a new layout to share today for our new challenge this month. </div><div style="text-align: center;">The theme is: 2022...the year in review.</div><div style="text-align: center;">You can interpret it any way you like. For example, you can scrap about how one experience changed/stood out for you, or about different experiences you had, or you can put your photos in chronological order. Scrap it however you like, it's up to you!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I decided on one experience that truly changed my life and changed me as a person. Posada Ladies Retreat. I cant put it into words how grateful I am for this experience.

It can be simple with only a few lines or go bigger with paragraphs.

The little touches of the doodling around the edges and some of the stars gives it life and then the journeling, that's always important to fit in.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD-icYohSBn7tiWahioV6kYAi6gXyl6DKQCo7xnRpyYSH9iDf5sBW8l-2uGYPRLXd7fLBlInFxVOwaIfPVuRPt9L9peDssFTfUpJmXTuQfNSH_-UpzNGUhNQyBX3eyiYNfcPLmbj8GAOjlrbjXLW20QIMLXj-Pry7PR_Jg7iWqqJ3xtZMTocncruCqqw/s2016/cy100.1%20(2).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1512" data-original-width="2016" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD-icYohSBn7tiWahioV6kYAi6gXyl6DKQCo7xnRpyYSH9iDf5sBW8l-2uGYPRLXd7fLBlInFxVOwaIfPVuRPt9L9peDssFTfUpJmXTuQfNSH_-UpzNGUhNQyBX3eyiYNfcPLmbj8GAOjlrbjXLW20QIMLXj-Pry7PR_Jg7iWqqJ3xtZMTocncruCqqw/w640-h480/cy100.1%20(2).jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiove3Pazf3GER7fi_jE06RetvSo9TPMj4a46SiZ0OIXMkq8KrOS-bKJ2pd6wyYZtmHBosG85YCL6vh-ToNPan4CVrN7lX7H0SRmKI6ggclilWYxQ-x-g8ZwK1WHz1WfUzS9e-beC_IJbw4WSh6YFiqaKdkb891nLz_BQ0oZ21mXiuo9d-sOGSLMI-rhA/s2016/cy100.2%20(2).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2016" data-original-width="1504" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiove3Pazf3GER7fi_jE06RetvSo9TPMj4a46SiZ0OIXMkq8KrOS-bKJ2pd6wyYZtmHBosG85YCL6vh-ToNPan4CVrN7lX7H0SRmKI6ggclilWYxQ-x-g8ZwK1WHz1WfUzS9e-beC_IJbw4WSh6YFiqaKdkb891nLz_BQ0oZ21mXiuo9d-sOGSLMI-rhA/w478-h640/cy100.2%20(2).jpg" width="478" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;">Now it's your turn!

I know it's still cold and snowy but just knowing spring is right around the corner makes me so happy. I'm not a winter girl.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Now let's get to the new challenge of the month over at <a href="http://scrap-challenge-yourself.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Challenge YOUrself</a>. We've got a pet theme this time.

I just think cats are the cutest animals on this planet. Here I am showing off my two beauties. Rex is the old man, he is 16 years and is my snuggler. Pearl is the little princess, she is 6 years and is my shadow. They are both very spoiled and I wouldn't have it any other way!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">For this layout I used the <i>Whiskers</i> collection by <i>PhotoPlay</i> and I added misc washy tape and alphas to make it all come together.
