September Blog Challenge - Template Revisited 50

The BIG Five-Oh!  Wowser!  This month marks the fiftieth Revisited template.  Fifty! That's amazing. Seriously, mind-blowing A-MAAZ-ZING!  Have I really been writing the monthly challenges for more than four years!! How is that even possible?

Oh, it's possible. I took a little look back: Liz brought back (and I started writing) the monthly blog challenge in July 2012.  With the return, she introduced a new idea that was initially called the 3Rs (Revisited, Revamped, & Revised).  By the very next month, it was simply Template Revisited.  Forty-nine layouts and countless pages from scrappers all over the world later and here we are:  Number 50!

Looking back, I found that many of my all-time favorite layouts have come from these fabulous Revisited templates. I sighed over the nostalgia of favorite kit designers long retired and chuckled at the trends in embellishments.  But mostly, it was just a happy little trip down memory lane.  I bet if you look back, you'll find something very similar. There really is something about the Revisited templates that makes it so easy to create a great page.

Amanda, Donna, and Ekaterina created a fun set of inspiration for you this month.  I must apologize for not having a page done. Between the pressures of a new full time position and the kids going back to school I just couldn't make the deadline.  My page is started, it's really about 2/3 done, I just need a little more time:  I'll get it wrapped up and onto the FB page soon - I promise.  Here's what the team did: 

by AmandaJ
using a kit by Amber Labau & Studio68
Fonts: caviar dreams, oceanography, circus

by Donna
using On The Street We Live by Etc by Danyale

by Ekaterina
using Parks & Recreation by Kristin Aagard

Our winner for the August Challenge is Lori F and her oh so yummy page about ice cream!  Congrats, Lori!
