Things were so busy last month that I ran out of days (and time) to post the remaining Designer Challenge projects. Each month we have a Designer Challenge with the DT gals. I'm trying to think of some fun and different ideas for upcoming months so if you have some suggestions, I'd love to hear them! Anyhow, this past month (March) they were asked to scrap themselves. Most had fun with it, others not-so-much. The projects turned out FABULOUS so I don't know why some were whining. ;)
Here are the remaining March Designer Challenge Layouts:

Designer Note: When we were asked by Jill to create a page using a picture of ourselves for the designer challenge this month I wasn't sure what I would do. I am always the one behind the camera taking the pictures- perhaps you can relate? In January I had the opportunity to visit with friends that I grew up with but hadn't seen in more than 10 years, one of which is right now receiving treatment for brain cancer. These aren't perfect pictures, they were taken with someone's phone camera, but they help me to remember the wonderful weekend we had reminiscing and making the most of the time we had.
