</div><div style="text-align: center;">Today our challenge is a bitter sweet one... today, FAVE THINGS is two years old, but it is also our very last challenge.... I have decided to 'close' down shop..... This was the hardest decision I have ever had to make. I can not even begin to thank EVERYONE involved in this challenge blog for the past two years, my past and present DT members, my Guest DT members, our sponsors, our players, Scrap Street Magazine for doing a feature article on us last year...everyone! :):):):):) Sadly though, life has gotten in the way. It has just become too hard for me to keep up the challenges and the demand of another blog.... I hope you all understand..... </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I never dreamed that this blog would become what it has been. I have truly enjoyed seeing all that have played along.... I have been touched by everyone's take on our challenges... I only hoped that me and the DT members would inspire you all to scrap about your FAVE THINGS... and I hope that we have accomplished that.....I love you all that have played along with us for the past two years.... </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I am going to leave this blog live for everyone to still visit and get inspiration from though... I promise not to delete it :):):):):)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">We do have one last challenge for everyone to play along with! :):):):):):):)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Michelle took this challenge and went in a different direction (which I LOVE!) ... here is what Michelle says about her layout: "I went a different direction for this challenge... and made my collection a wish... if I could, I would collect every giggle... every joyful chuckle... every belly filled laugh Rainee shares... because her laughter brightens every day... and fills every moment with such delight... I can never get enough of it.".... *sigh* how BEAUTIFUL is that?!?!?!?! LOVE IT! :):):):):):):):):):):)<br />

I have been scrapbooking for about 9 years now, and have been hooked from day one. I have been with hubby for over 15 years now and love him more everyday. Together we have a daughter who keeps us very busy and always gives my camera a workout :) I don't really have a certain style I stick to when creating things. It's more whatever i'm feeling at the moment, but I love to try out new techniques."</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I 'found' this girl a few months ago, and just have fallen in LOVE with her creations! Thanks Anne for being our GDT this month! :):):):) Here is what Anne has to say about herself:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><pre><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">"I grew up in a military family, with lots of opportunity to travel and live </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">around Canada and Europe - but I love my life in a small village in Ontario, </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Canada where my kids have been free to roam and play or hang out with their </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">friends. I am a mother of five great kids, two still at home and attending </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">high school. I am a publisher and have been involved with print design and </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">training for years. I believe in life-long learning, and I study part-time </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">at Queen’s University. </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I have been scrapbooking for 3 years. A couple of girlfriends from school </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">days invited me to scrap with them for a week 3 years ago, and I told them I’d </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">rather gouge my eyes out. They bribed me with wine, and so I came out to </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">visit. From that moment on I have been passionate about scrapbooking. </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I have met so many awesome new friends through my passions of scrapbooking </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">and photography! My favourite scrapbooking subjects are my children and my </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">beautiful mother, who passed away in 2009. </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">These are a Few of my Favorite Things has been one of my favourite challenge </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">blogs since I discovered it a few months back!!! Thanks for always </span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">challenging me to define myself and my passions in life with your thought </span>

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Here is what Sara has to say about herself :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><i>I just love to be crafty! Crafty time for me whether its making layouts, cards or a project is my therapy! I love taking photos and recording my families memories! I have been crafty my whole life but over the past 6 yrs I have hosted scrapbooking days and retreats locally and in the past year started my own blog, challenge blog and participated on several design teams.</i></div><div></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><i>I enjoy inspiring others to try something new! We all need inspiration from some place and I am constantly being inspired by all of the talented craft goddesses out there! </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><i>I think my style is all over the radar! I like to go with a different vibe depending on my photos – some layouts are pretty and fluffy, others grungy and rugged! I do have a weakness for using one photo per page but I am working on that. </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><i>Thank you Julie for giving me the opportunity to play along with the very talented ladies here at A Few Of My Favorite Things! </i></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><br />

I totally understand her decision and completely will miss her and support her! I love you girl... you know you will always be a part of FAVE THINGS family! :):):):):):):):):):):):):)<br />

I'm writing this to you in hopes that you will be able to forgive me. I didn't always love you. In fact, in the beginning, I didn't even like you. I was still cheating on you with others. I have, however learned a valuable lesson. My love for you grows stronger and stronger every day.

If someone asks me what I like about myself, I always answer: my eyes.<br />
But I just not wanted to scrap that. I started thinking, and I came up with my hands. I couldn't live without creating. I HAVE to create at one point. Sometimes I can go for weeks without the energy of creating, but then.... oh my, there is an overflow of creating things. It's like they pop out of my hands without stopping :D"</i></div><div style="text-align: center;">Can I tell you how MUCH I love this layout from Wendy? I love the photo and just the clean design!!
