2025 - A year in the Life of Florence

This is my layout for the Peartree Cutfile March Colour Challenge. The colour this month is pink.
I used the Calendar cutfile to make this page to front the 2024 layouts for Florence's scrapbook.

I used:
Basic Grey - Out Of Print collection - papers and alphabet stickers

Cricut
Scraps from the first layout
Bazzill - pink and blue scraps
