Caught in the Act - H2H Challenge

This week our theme at Heart 2 Heart Challenges is "Framed" now many in the paper crafting world would think frames and matting and beautiful stuff like that but not me. I have 3 very beautiful but wild and crazy girls who are always into and up to something so my first thought was busted! I also had a customer request a layout about being busted or caught in the act for our upcoming workshop as she has a little guy who like my girls is always up to something. So they are "framed" because we are always watching them.
