Title: "What I Love BEST!"
Hostess: Faith

Hi! I love to scrapbook, and have been hoarding and saving photos for years. A few weeks ago, while on a VERY rare cleaning binge, I found my "Love Best Box." (I keep my favorite photos of Markie in that box.) I opened it, and began to sort through the wonderful photos for hours! I ended up on the floor all weepy.
Markie heard me crying and hustled into my room. He saw the pile of photos and asked, concerned, "Mom, are you okay?"
I looked at him, and blubbered, "Yes, I'm fine."
He turned and called for his father, "Dad, Mom's on the floor with the Love Best Box crying. Is that �A GIRL THING?��
His father hollered back, "No...that's a Stampin'/Scrappin' Girl Thing!"
So, in honor of that conversation, and my Love Best Box, I challenge you to create a "What I Love Best" scrapbook page using the following items that you LOVE BEST:
1. ALL VSBN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 10:00 PM EST ON SUNDAY, SEPTEMEMBER 6TH.
2. You have 2 hours to complete the challenge.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword, AUG09VSBND , when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
It is also highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in this chat thread to be sure you layout is seen.

It's a rare occasion that we bring in food. But since I am not feeling well and I have tried all day to hang out here, I think he was feeling sorry for me. Maybe.....Maybe not? DS's wanted chicken and so thus KFC!
I cooked all week so I wouldn't have to cook today. Fend for yourself night.

This is a great challenge, Faith. I love your story too - sounds like something that would come out of my DH's mouth I'll get to this one asap once I find the picture I want to use!!

My hubby brought home Burger King for us on his way home from the golf course and he helped me link my last page on here,too. He's so sweet!!! FYI for those of you who don't have copies of your wedding pix, I made some copies of mine on the color copier at my office last night and they came out great (and they are 33 years old!!!). The ones I copied were in an old photo album and I just laid them on the copier still on the page in the book. Hopefully, you can do this someplace,too. Now, to decide what pix and "love best" items to use for this challenge ?????

I finally finished! Got a late start after supper break then had to decide on pix and idea for page. I'm posting 2 views of the page since you can see the pix better in the first one and the details, embellies, etc. better in the second one. I'm afraid I'll have to quit for the night. My eyes are drooping and I'm about to fall asleep. Have fun and I'll see y'all tomorrow!1976 Wedding Page by jcstamplady at Splitcoaststampers

Here's the second view of my page. This one shows the embellies,etc. better. My little love birds with the heart in the upper right hand corner kind of got lost in the DP. The DP is silver and white but doesn't really look silver in the pix. Sleep well dear scrappers, wherever you are!1976 Wedding Page #2 by jcstamplady at Splitcoaststampers
