Tracey from the US made this gorgeous layout. This is what she wrote:

The Reed family's 10 year old son, Justin, went to be with our Lord last summer - he is in the red and white striped shirt. I had a crop for them last fall to capture memories for the family and continue to do 1 or 2 layouts a month for them. This photo is of them on vacation at a lake in Canada.

Thanks, Tracey!

January 2011 Sketch Competition

Create a layout based on my sketch below and email me a picture of your layout (if you want you can also include another picture or two with details of your layout) before midnight on the 31st of January 2011).

Here are some more 'rules' and details:

• The winner will be announced in the first few days of February 2011.
• The winner will be determined by the Random Number Generator.
• Each layout will get a number, which can be seen on the January 2011 slideshow on the right side of this blog.
• Please understand that you can only send me one layout every month. I would like everyone who participates to have an equal chance!
• Don't forget: please let me know your blog address (if you have one), so I can link the layout to you own blog! Please send the link to your blog every time you participate; I don't keep all the emails from previous months and it would take me way too much time to search for them all the time ... Sorry.
