The Groove's May 2008 Freebie Challenge

Here is my entry. When a child of a former State FFA Officer is elected to a State Office in the FFA it's called a "Legacy". The photos show my state officer team in Wisconsin and my oldest daughter's here in South Dakota. I made the word art myself in Paint Shop Pro.

Yes - I to are loving the variety we are getting. Excellent. Sorry didn't get the chance to pop in yesterday as I've had a tummie bug that has introduced me to the toilet on a number of occasions yesterday. LOL I am however feeling much better today.

I've commented on everyones layouts in the gallery and if I've missed anyone out I apologize - not intentional. Excellent layouts from everyone. Awesome.

Oh Carena,

I was giving my 92 year old aunt a tour of this site today, and showed her the kit that Carena gave us to create our layouts. She was so impressed with the Interesting designs created from just a few things. Well done everyone!

[Carena]

Grannywin - that is so cool. 92 years you say. Wow. My mum turns 76 this year and basically won't come near the computer and if she did - probably only to put the axe through it. LOL She hates it. LOL - Just as well we don't own an axe.

Take care
Hugs from Carena

Oh WOW I'm literally lost for words all these beautiful layouts are just phenomenal. I haven't been around for a few days due to having a bad case of bronchitis. I still have it and feel not that much better but better enough to finally get on here I love viewing everyone's work it's just breathtaking, you are all so talented and you literally blow my mind with such beauty that you all produce I want to compliment each and everyone of you personally but I would forget someone's name so have complimented you all as one. Sorry about that.

Mine is really simple. But enjoyed doing it. Thanks for the challenge. It is not easy to get a picture of these two together. So this one is special. They are brother and sister.

Gosh it is so long since I last looked at this challenge and everyone has been very busy. What fabulous layouts everyone has produced. The amount of talent and imagination out there is staggering. It always fascinates me just how other people interpret a challenge like this and the creative way in which they all use so few items. It is definitely true what they say

"Less is more".

[Pink Lollipop]

Ya love your layouts gals.. everyone did so well... really enjoy seeing the layouts.. wow! Keep it coming everyone .

Well it is nearly the end of the month already. This is the first time I have actually sat down and looked through this post from start to finish. I am astounded at the depth and variety of beautiful layouts that everyone has created with so few bits and pieces. This site certainly has a richness of soul and a wealth of artistic talent. Each and every one of you has produced a work of art. Well done.
