All right, let me get to today's post. Betsy has given us the task this month to follow a layout for a 6x6 Scrapbook page. Well, I had never ever done a Scrapbook page in my life so this one was really hard for me ;P. No , really, it was hard for me. But guess what, I managed to do a little something and I might add that I am all right with the outcome if you consider this being my VERY FIRST time :D:D:D.

Recipe:

Paper: Little Yellow Bicycle, DCWV light blue textured cardstock for the base
