Friends forever!

Hi everyone!  I hope you are all having a wonderful September so far!  I cannot believe that autumn will be here this week.  I hope that you are enjoying your September, no matter what season you are going welcoming in!
♥ ♥ 
Today I would like to share my latest scrapbook page:  I made this layout for the current Dusty Attic challenge.  Here is their beautiful mood board for September:


And the only "rule" is that you require Dusty Attic chipboard used on your masterpiece. 

Isn't that great?  I took my cue from the beautiful pussy willow and gorgeous colors.  
Here is my layout. (that I thoroughly enjoyed making, by the way.)
 

The Dusty Attic chipboard that I used:




Here are some close-ups of the chipboard pieces on my scrapbook page:




With some different angles:

Thank you so much, Dusty Attic, for the inspiration this month. ♥  I couldn't have made it without you!  I have been waiting for the right time to scrap this special photo, a photo of my daughter, Anne, with her travel group friends, taken back in 2009 at Pearl S. Buck in Perkasie, PA.  We got together that day to celebrate their Chinese heritage.  It was a beautiful summer day in June:


Here are some more photos:

I cannot believe that the older girls are 13 now!  WOW!  Talk about time flying . . .  And they are all are growing up so beautifully! ♥ 

I will end my post today with the quote that I used on my layout: 

"We will be friends forever, won't we, Pooh?
asked Piglet.
Even longer, Pooh answered."

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today.  ♥  Hugs!

  11. The inspiration is beautiful and your take on it is lovely too. I like the way you have used the chipboard (I would have found that difficult) and shown the Friends Forever in the photo.
    The three photos of the girls are utterly charming.
    Pooh always knew just the right thing to say.
