April Swap

Kelly didn't do a swap this month, but my partner and I liked each other's work so well that we decided to do our own.  I sent some pictures of my boys wrestling to Janet and she sent me pictures of France, another on her list of places for a book she is making...The Places You'll Go.

Kit: J'adore by Precepts and Promises

I played around with blending two different background papers and then with erasing part of an element cluster.  Janet loved her page and I am so happy that she did.  This kit was just perfect for it.

Here is Janet's page for me:

I love how the boys playing with Ryan is captured.

While I don't have all the details worked out yet (such as a reliable place to get bound books and the whole tax thing), I have made a facebook page to get me started.

Please go to the page and let me know what you think.  I am still designing business cards and trying to get the color just right.

In the next few days I will be sharing some layouts that I have done for my sister (and yes, she is getting the family discount aka free).

In the meantime I am still looking for another product designer to work with creating layouts and will let you know when I find them.
