Celebrating Color Me Daisy!!

Welcome to the Color Me Daisy blog hop (and crop)! We're CELEBRATING CMD's 1st birthday!!! Wooohoooo!!! We hope you'll join us!!! Michelle is giving away LOTS of prizes so if you didn't start at the beginning, head back to the Color Me Daisy Blog to start on your Celebrate Blog Hop journey!

For this blog hop, each of the Daisy Girls are hosting a challenge based on the theme of "Celebrate". To participation in our celebration, hop to all the blogs, check out all the challenges (and leave comments), and then create your own projects in order to be entered to win! There will be two different drawings, one from all the comments left on the blogs, and the other from those who enter layouts based on the Daisy Girls' challenges by uploading them in the "Celebrate Crop and Blog Hop" folder in the CMD gallery. (hint they must be 200k or less for the gallery)

And now for my challenge, I'm choosing to "Celebrate Summer"!

Here I've created two different multi-photo sketches for you to choose from and show off your favorite summer photos!

Sketch #1


Sketch #2


July 09

I used sketch #1 to create this LO of my favorite July memories. I had soooo many pictures from the summer, that I decided to split them up and do one for each month. For this LO I used supplies from the CMD July kit with the buttons, and ribbon being from my stash. And see those Thickers---they're a part of the newest release and are my FAVORITE! You can find them in the CMD store if I haven't bought them all yet! hehe!

I designed these sketches thinking you'd have as many summer photos as I have (if not more)! I used thumbnails of my most favorite photos, but of course if you don't have that many pictures, you can always throw in some patterned paper instead. To be eligible for the Crop drawing, be sure you upload your take on either one (or both) of these sketches to the CMD gallery with some type of "Celebrate Summer" theme!

Also, leave me a comment here, and you'll be entered in to the drawing for the Blog Hop prizes!!!

Hop around to the other Daisy Girls and leave them some love to be entered too!
