Top Ten Blog Hop: My Favorite Scrapbook Layouts from 2015



Hello and welcome to the Top Ten Blog Hop where a number of us are showcasing our favorite projects from the past year.  It's going to be a pinning haven for sure!  You should be arriving here from Christine Meyer's blog (which also happens to be the beginning of our hop).

I always have the hardest time picking just ten projects (and I'm not even including my favorite cards this time), but to keep it from getting completely out of control I thought I would pick 12 of my favorite layouts with one for each month of the year.  ;)

January:  Doodlebug Frosty Friends

February:  Bella Blvd Tiny Tots

March:  A focus on Doodlebug Washi Tape

April:  Pebbles Inc. Homegrown

May:  Doodlebug Back To School

June:  Pebbles Inc. Cottage Living and Happy Day

JulyPebbles Inc. Americana

AugustBella Blvd Riley
September: Doodlebug October 31st
October: Doodlebug Daily Doodles
November: Echo Park The Story of Fall

December:  Echo Park The Story of Christmas


Thanks so much for taking a trip down memory lane with me.  I hope you will check out all the other lovely projects in this wonderful hop!  

You have 23 chances to win an $80 gift card to an online store of your choosing by leaving a comment on each blog along the way.  The contest is open until 11:59 pm CST on January 3rd to give you some extra time to leave your comments. 

Many of us are also giving away extra individual prize on our blogs.  I have a flat rate Priority Box stuffed full of product from American Crafts, Pebbles and a few other companies up for grabs that is valued at over $200.  All I ask is that you use it yourself or pass it on to a friend who could use it (rather than selling it).  Use the rafflecopter below for your chance to win this sweet box.  :)

  16. Well...Since I absolutely LOVE your style of creating it is very difficult to choose only 1 favorite layout! However, I am especially fond of all the Pebbles ones, lol, and pinned them, but the E.P. December Story of Christmas was the most delicious! Thank you for a chance to win such an awesome prize! My sister & I would share the goodness :) Can't wait to see what you do in 2016! Happy New Year!!

  17. All of the layouts are great - they are clean and simple, not overly-fussy. Love that.
    Pretty Boy (August) is probably my favorite. He's a nice-looking cat and the embellishments like the paw print and hearts are great.
    thanks for sharing. I will use the gift if I win your prize - looking forward to seeing what's in the box.
    Happy New Year
