I still can’t believe that January is already over! Well, now we get to enjoy this short month of L♥VE!
I’m continuing with last month’s idea of using a phrase instead of a direct quote from someone. I seriously had a hard time choosing between two phrases, so I’m giving you the choice to choose ONE.
Here are the PHRASES I chose for this month:
“All Because Two People Fell in Love”
–OR–
“Life is not the amount of breaths you take; it’s the moments that take your breath away.”
Use either one of these quotes on a layout and post it in the Quote Challenge Gallery. Then come back here & leave a COMMENT with the LINK to your layout, so we can all gush over them.
Please post by February 28th and you will get this posting bonus FREE from me just for playing along:
I was working on this as a kit to go in my store, but I decided to break it into parts and give it as a LARGE posting bonus this month! I’m just tryin’ to show you the LOVE!
I wonder which *phrase* you’ll choose!
**Please be sure to enter your current email address when leaving a comment, so I can send the posting bonus to you! Thanks!

Yep it’s still here but with a twist! I had a few of you emailing me telling me how sad it would be to end this challenge as some of you do have pet pics to scrap and this section allowed you to find time to do that! And I know what you mean, as I have my fur babies past and present to immortalise in digital layouts too….
So this is what I have got for you,
I did promise you a twist.. And the twist is I am giving you the animal to play with.
It’s February and of course Valentines Day plays such a big part in this month, so here’s a little love bird to use in your layouts!
The rule is, you MUST use this bird, but you can make a layout of anything you like, yes even humans lol! But of course I would still love to see your darling pets.
Here is a link to my little lovey dovey
http://www.4shared.com/file/209841612/3d7ca252/lcc-loveydovey.html
To get you started, I have done a layout of my fur baby Roman.. who incidentally has been a naughty boy this weekend and has caused me to sprain my ankle!
and when you have completed your layout I will send you this co-ordinated kit.
So scrap away and don’t forget to come back here with a link to your page.
Thanks for playing this month.

Oh my! After everyone complaining how hard last month’s challenge was, I have decided to go easy on you galls 
I chose a SIMPLE but beautiful layout by mrscarol_1
I just loved the square photo frame against the curvy paper. You can leave her some love here.
Use the layout to inspire you; either in colours, layout or general theme and post your layout here in the Scraplift gallery so that we can leave you some love.
This is what you are playing for this month. It co-ordinates with last month’s posting bonus. Don’t forget to leave a comment here with a valid email address so that I can send you your posting bonus.
Have fun.
