Two girls and a goat!

Hi all-

My blog post/layout title almost sounds the beginning of a bad joke, huh? ;) 

Our latest alphabet challenge is live over at Scrapbooker's Anonymous...and this time it's the letter "G"

Now... I used a lot of my Graphic 45 goodies for my DT audition for them (thanks for all the love on my post for my audition! I so appreciate you all!!) so I used my "The GIRLS Paperie" papers and also my title has two "G's" in it... "Girls and Goat" hehehe... and I used GREEN thread for my stitching

 Brookie and her BFF Aerin went to the zoo in December and this was Aerin's fave goat at the petting zoo area and she just was so excited to tell Brookie all about him! Lol! Too cute!






And for those that haven't noticed... blogger has CHANGED again... this time they went from a simple word verification process to a DIFFICULT one... it's now a TWO WORD process with those words that are all squiggly and hard to read :( I struggled ALL last night with leaving comments on people that have word verification in place...(blame it on my really bad eyes! I am NOT a ROBOT blogger... just blind as a bat! lol!) .... also it seems that blogger is struggling with their new 'word verification' process that they put in place... I was refreshing some of the blogs that I KNOW I left comments on...and in one place they weren't there, but then when the comment pop window came up... there it was... weird... just wanted to give everyone a head's up!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I appreciate it! :)

Hi Julie~love the LO very inique~love unique!!!! On a side note I have had to go to the verification because I have trouble with spammers. Wish I could post like you do:):)

Lea said...

Love the design to this one and all the stitching. And those embellies are so cool!!!

Audrey Pettit said...

Wow, what a gorgeous layout, Julie! I love that vintage inspired design. Fabulous papers, love the blocked pattern, and LOVE those metal findings. The clock faces and birdcages are SO cool. Totally love that fun title, too. does sound like the beginning of a joke, and it makes me smile.
What a big bother Blogger is! Don't know why they have to keep messing. Them and Facebook........just leave things alone already, right!

~amy~ said...

Diana Waite said...

GREAT layout! I know about blogger--crazy! Actually it's kind of good, in the last week I had VERY strange from another country comments (6 to be exact), haven't had any since they changed it.

Lizzy Hill said...

Aaah!! So it's not 'me' & blogger. I HATE that new way, too. I can't see them half the time, either:):) Hey! I've just done a goat LO too...but didn't 'click' to do it for the 'G' challenge. Looks like the girls are having a great time! This Graphic 45 new stuff is very yummy:):)

Maggi said...

Captcha needs to quit! lol Love the layout, so sweet for such a cute picture!

The Wallace Family said...

Super cute layout and those word verifications get on my NERVES!! I hope my blog hasn't magically appeared with them, because I had it turned off!

Amy Coose said...

Love this LO, Julie! I noticed blogger had changed their verification...so annoying!

Leah Crowe said...

aww such a super sweet layout.. lovely design too!!

Kirsty Vittetoe said...

So adorable!!!!

Antonia Krajicek {Green Horned Unicorn} said...

Very creative use of the letter "g"! I noticed a LOT of complaints on Twitter & Facebook today regarding the change of the captcha. Hopefully Blogger will get the message and move back to the old version!

alexandra s.m. said...

Love your page Julie and I'm with you about the word verification!! ARGHHHHHH....

Audra said...

Oh such a pretty layout!! Really great design!! Your layouts are always so unique and so "you". Love it!! :)

I so like the grid style you used on the layout.

Cheryl said...

Girl, how DO you keep it up? Another FAB layout!! Yes, I noticed that Blogger had changed the word verification format. Thank you, Blogger. LOL

Lisa Andrews said...

Cassie Box said...

I think this is a fabulous layout!!!! I also think that Blogger and Facebook should stop messing with things that don't need to be "fixed" LOL!!! I'm blind too and those words are seriously hard to read sometimes. Have a great weekend!!!! =)

momto8 said...

I tuned my word verification off.
I am also your newet follower..pls follow back if you can.

Izzyb said...

Your title totally made me smile. Beautiful page and such a fun pic. I hate the new 2-word verification. So hard to read. I am thinking of removing that requirement from my blog a d see how the spam goes.

artfuldelight said...

Love this LO!! :-)

Helen Tilbury said...

I've been thinking about it and I THINK what G**gle actually want is for people to remove their word verification - that is why they are making it so difficult to deal with - to encourage people to do it - I've seen that they are bullies - like with the deleting the blogs - same thing - just force us all to do what they want - sneaky...Now on your layout - PRETTY, PRETTY STASH you have there & cute photo and title!!

Jenna Ruth said...

Cute layout! Love the design of it. Love the title!!

Carin McDonough said...

Aaaaargh my internet is playing up or something and I can't actually see any pictures so I can't see your layout! I am sure it it lovely though! :)

cococricketsmama said...

Computers, so annoying... I love your LO, great colors!

Annesphamily said...

Everywhere I go there are blogs with goats at various farms! I love it! But you always show a different side to everything and you make lots of people smile with your creative talents. As always I enjoy visiting you here.

Jeanet said...

LOVE this layout Julie! Beautiful papers and I love the squares and the stitching...WOW!Great story!

Val said...

Super adorable layout!! Yeah, what up with the new 2 word verification?! Annoying! On the Middle they had a part where the mom was trying to get Bieber tickets, but couldn't get them b/c of the word verify on the computer...I will have to find the clip!

Theresa said...

i love this layout!!!! goats and girls..lol.. how often does that get to happen.. =) And I'm hating on Blogger lately. makes me think about trying out typepad.
Hope you are enjoying your weekend.. Happy Sunday!!!

Joni Parker said...

Cute goat girls!!! I noticed the blogger thing too when I was commenting and I had the same problem with some of the words...not your eyes... H's looked like N's (lower case..) etc...
