Marieke created this beautiful layout. I love her cluster and the elegant simplicity of this page:
And this gorgeous layout from Shanna absolutely wowed me (is wowed a word?). Those pictures were just made to go with this kit. I love how her photos take center stage and how everything blends together so beautifully! She used one of the "On the Line" templates from Fran B Designs in this layout.

And the last one is one I made. I wanted to showcase the beautiful Ruth Hulburt Hamilton poem that inspired this kit. I used a free template from Double Trouble Scraps. I'm offering this as a quick page to my Facebook fans!
Babies Don't Keep includes 15 papers, 30 elements, and a full alpha.
As a reminder, I am always looking for new CT members! If you'd like to learn more about my very simple requirements, please be in touch via Facebook, a private message at With Love Studio, or email (callalunacreations@mail.com). Please note that I do not remember to check my email very often, so the first two contact options are preferred!
You can learn more about Down Syndrome from the National Association of Down Syndrome website. And for a more personal story regarding Down's Syndrome, please read the story of little Alphonse, son to the fantastic designer Mye De Leon!

I'm sure some of you are wondering what is up with the spoons.... While you can learn about Fibromyalgia here, what you really MUST read is The Spoon Theory. Yes, The Spoon Theory. This story does a better job of explaining what it is like to live with chronic pain than anything I could ever come up with on my own. Please, take a minute to read it! It will help you to understand what its like to live with not just Fibromyalgia, but all types of chronic pain.
Some quick Fibromyalgia facts:
-The major symptoms of FM include: chronic, widespread body pain; moderate to severe fatigue; sleep disorders and disturbances; and problems with cognitive functioning and memory.
-Recent studies have suggested that FM patients have generalized disturbance in pain processing and an amplified response to stimuli that would not ordinarily be painful in healthy individuals.
-Since there is no known cure for FM, treatment focuses on relieving symptoms and improving function.
-Approximately 10 million Americans have fibromyalgia (FM) with a ratio of about 8 to 2, women over men, and it occurs in people of all ages, even children.
This is what awaits you if you follow along to all of the remaining stops:

Thank you for stopping by! Just a reminder that I have not one but TWO specials running in my shop right now! A sale and a coupon! Be sure to check them out! My store at Southern Comfort Scraps will be closing at the end of the month, and I will be having my grand opening at With Love Studio sometime in July!
Last year was different, though. Last year we were in the states for Independence Day for the first time since Luna was born. We did it up in style, with a huge family party (family came from all over the states!), tons of food, a stars and stripes dress handmade by mama, and of course, her first fireworks (she liked them!). So many beautiful memories from that day!
Ok, ok, thank you for listening politely. Now its time for the freebie you came for. :) Here is the mini kit I used to create the simple layout I shared:
You can get it HERE.

According to the National Alopecia Areata Foundation, alopecia areata affects 2% of the population - that is more than five million people just in the U.S.! Alopecia areata is an autoimmune skin disease that causes bald spots on the scalp and other parts of the body, and in extreme cases can result in complete hair loss. I learned a lot about the disease by reading this article from the New England Journal of Medicine.
Here is my contribution to the blog train:
