This may be the  only June layout I complete with packing and moving, both of my kiddos birthdays and a Garth Brooks concert at the end of the month my plate it overflowing-and I am so excited about it all!

Recently I took a job as a freelance craft writer and I see a lot of quilt patterns that have inspired me to incorporate that look into my scrapbooking.

Buying a house has kept me on a budget (more so than usual) and I have been itching for new supplies. A few days ago I went to Walmart and found some things that would not normally catch my eye...one of which were drawer/shelf liners in a bright sunny yellow, I used these for the circles in the layout! Also, I found clearance Duck Tape that is actually fabric-I thought it was perfect for my quilt inspired layout! What do you think? What are some of the weirdest materials you have used for scrap'n?
 
Thanks!
