Scrapping from A-Z with Kathryn Estry

Hi!  I'm Kathryn, and I design for My Memories.  I love bringing scrapping ideas to you in my scrap series, From A to Z!  It's time for a new letter and a new topic.  

First let me remind you to post your layouts in my matching Challenge Thread, Scrapping with Kathryn from A to Z. Everyone who posts a layout in this month's thread will receive from me the prize I have posted with this month's challenge.  To make it extra sweet, your layout can be about anything I've shown you in ANY of my A to Z challenges! 

Now, on to today's topic! 

L is for

Lions!

Way back when ... in the last century ... I was in high school, and our mascot was the lion.  I was a Lionette in the dance team and I even collection lion figurines.  Let's enjoy this king of the jungle on our pages just for fun.  Here are some of my kits with lions and sample pages made by my very talented Creative Team ladies.

Thank you, Ladies!

Let me remind you to head over to my A to Z Challenge, check out the prize for this month.  I challenge you to make a page with a lion or with another beautiful large creature!  I can't wait to see your pages!

Kaleidoscope of Color with Aimee Harrison

 

This month I wanted to concentrate on something sunny and bright so I chose the color orange which is a fun color to scrap with!

I have the perfect collection for this and it is my Be My Clementine.

Free Weekly Kit by Featured Designer: FranB Designs

Let’s welcome FranB Designs as this week’s Featured Designer!

How long have you been designing? Hi! I am Fran and have been designing since 2010 or so. I started selling in shops in 2011, having done freebies on my blog prior to that. A lot has changed in the last 12 years and it is fun to be a small part of that. What is your proudest accomplishment? My son. He is 20 and is a kind person with a very good heart and I love him fiercely for it! What is the farthest you have ever traveled from home? We like to cruise a lot and that usually means a trip around the Caribbean. When I was in 1st grade I went to Hawaii (fron Chicago), but I was so young, that I didn't get to appreciate it like it deserves. Hawaii at 6 is a lot different than Hawaii as an adult with your hubby! I'm traveling even farther next spring, we are cruising to Europe from Florida, and we are incredibly excited about that trip! What would you do if you won the lottery? I would first get a new car and nicer house and furnish it. I'd want to complete my Disney and Harry Potter collections, but my hubs is much more frugal and wise in spending so would probably want to save most of it. But I'd at least get the car & house! What movie could you quote the best? Years ago, I could recite The Little Mermaid by heart, but that was awhile ago (original movie) but I think I could definitely still do quite a lot of it. I do have gadgets and gizmos aplenty! To finish off we would love to share some of FranB Designs’ favorite layouts:
