Your dog has a great name! I like how you used a meandering cluster to accent your photo in both of your layouts...I have a really hard time doing that. Great take on the challenge!
Thank you so much for taking part in the challenge, AlyciaIN.
Fabulous lift and layout. I LOVE your photo with the cake and Angie. It looks like she is just waiting of the first piece. LOL. Your border around with all the themed elements is simply perfect.
