Karen Zabuska 
Karen writes- "Your picture inspired me to use greens and blues, so that is what I did and I did a layout of some online friends I got to meet last summer. We had a fabulous time and scrapped and saw some sights and talked (in person to our hearts content). Another fun sketch that I knew exactly what I wanted to do with."

Heather Bridges Topich

"Cromwell Road" layout

 Ann Seleshanko
Ann told me that "it was the colors that inspired me, the light green, teal, brown, combined with the textures."


"Cute Zoo Horses" layout
created by
 S: CY Team Leader
 Ali MacDonald 
JournalingIt’s funny… I never really used to “notice” the horses at the Zoo until we had one of our own for Kate. As soon as we got Oakley in 2007, and then Grace in 2009, I took more notice of these magnificent animals. Pete took photos of them more often, too. They were just more “special” to see and watch.  Even the miniatures at the Zoo commanded our attention! They are such perfect little creatures--Noah knows that, too! Just look at this special photo of him connecting with this baby pony!
