Authentique Classique Beauty

I'm excited to be making this album out of the beautiful  (really) new collection from Authentique called Classique Beauty. I thought it captured the photos of my beautiful mother (and father) perfectly!!! I'm going to be using it to teach a class at my awesome local scrapbook store!  I am entering it into Simon Says sTamp B challenge  (Beauty) also! 

It is very cool that Authentique is also having a contest so we can win some of their goodness--made in the U.S.A. goodies!!!

Thanks for looking!

Memphis - She loved; They loved

We went to Memphis for a couple of days over Spring Break this year.  My favorite part of the trip was the zoo where we got to see two adorable panda bears!  We are so spoiled with having the free St. Louis zoo so close to us that most zoos have a tough act to follow. But, the Memphis zoo had a lot to offer so we had a really nice time there!  We all really enjoyed the new Teton Trek which had grizzly bears and wolves.  The only other thing we really did was hang out downtown for a little bit.  We all enjoyed the music on Beale Street.  

This layout is a bit unusual for me as I have basically made two layouts in one.  The SHE (loved) on the left side is very feminine with flowers and butterflies in soft colors.   The THEY (loved) on the right side is very masculine with a grunge feel.
