Big World and a Freebie

So you know Laurie does AmAzInG work with her kits, right? Well this next one is no exception - and it is massively GIGANTIC! So many adorable elements!

Here is a look at her latest kit, Big World, that is one sale in her stores right now!
Here is a look at a separate elements pack you can get, these are a must have in my book!


When I first saw a preview of some of the elements, I knew just what picture I had, that I still needed to scrap! I started digital scrapbooking not long after this trip, and even though I am mostly caught up with current pictures, I have yet to go to too far back from when I started. I will get our trip to NY in 2008 done at some point! ;)



And of course I turned my layout into a template for you. Click HERE or on the preview to download.
