June Challenge at By the Cute and Girly

Its the start of June and time for a new challenge at the By the Cute and Girly Challenge blog.  This month's my turn to host and I have chosen "In the Garden" as the month's theme in the hope that we will get some sunny days and be able to sit outside and enjoy ourselves.  You can enter as often as you like, but it must be a different craft each time.  There are 4 great prizes to be won

A $20 Gift Certificate from Simon Says Stamp


A £10 Gift Certificate from Joanna Sheen

- Three digi images from Spesch Designer Stamps


- A prize package from Poppy's Cabin; lace, doilys,ribbon, charms...

So here is my 1st DT project which is also my 1st ever scrapbooking layout.  It features Mitzi, my mother's little pom posing in her back garden in the summer of 2002.  My mother and Mitzi are no longer with us but I have 100's of photo's of the garden and Mitzi looking as if she is in charge of everything!

The background paper is Websters Pages and I used an EK succes punch and some of my snippets.  Why not get going with some of your own garden-inspired makes this weekend and enter the BTC&G "In the Garden" challenge?  There are 2 or 3 Guest Designer places on offer as well as the prizes.
