MMDT 2013 #1

Well, I FINALLY finished my first assignment. Maybe one of the things about me should have been "PROCRASTINATOR"!!

Truthfully, I'm not usually this behind! I had ideas for this project a long time ago, however with a 12/12/12 wedding in Jamaica, Christmas, New Years, and studying for my IRS RTRP test, the time was gone before I knew it! So, I apologize!

For this project, rather than just chose just a colored grid paper, I used the MM "Top 10" page kit. I love the kits and have been adapting them for some time!

I always start out by laying out my pictures where I anticipate they'll go.

I use the overlay grid to plan my cuts...

And then I cut away!

My final project shows the "Top 10" things about me! I am an avid traveler, a reality TV junkie, love critters and football (especially the Oakland Raiders...even though I'm from Wisconsin and live in Minnesota!), and my family and friends are very important to me! And of course the best thing is my new hubby!!

Here's a close up of each page, then the entire layout. Hope you enjoy!! :) HUGS!!!!

Glad you finally got your layout posted! I love this kit and you did a great job making it work for you. I love that photo of the wedding! 12-12-12 was a special day for me too - my granddaughter turned 12 on that day!

I like the finished product, and I am excited about the process shots you took. This is great, I mean, like, totally great. Meeting you, greeting you, and basking in your top ten was truly worth the wait. Congrats on all levels.

Welcome to the Mosaic Moments Team Lori! It's good to have you here. I like what you've done with the kit. It was a great idea to start with this and adapt it for your list. How great for you to also include a wedding photo for us to see...summing up that most important tidbit of who you are so recently, Congrats!
