Hello Fall

 


Scrapping is slower the last couple of weeks with my husband having surgery and then a few complications, but hopefully on the uphill now.   I made this layout today of some fall tree’s in the neighborhood I got pictures of yesterday.

I’m entering this layout at   “LASTING MEMORIES”   for challenge #723 to use items that have been in your stash for 2+ years.   I’m not sure how old these fall collection papers and tags and stickers are but I haven’t bought any new fall collections in probably 4 years.


For this week's challenge, we are taking our inspiration from FALLING LEAVES and saying out with the old! 

LM #723 - Use an item that's been in your stash for 2+ years.

The End


 I’m finishing up my scrapbook from our Alaskan Cruise in May.    It was cold weather and rainy a lot but I’m so glad I finally made it to Alaska.   Now I want to go back again and see more.

I’ll be entering this layout at  “LASTING MEMORIES” Challenge  #724.

LM #724 - Find inspiration in the growing crops by using ascending sizes of paper strips or shapes OR create a colorful ombre design to symbolize the growth.

American Highways


 I’m entering this layout at “CHALLENGER YOURSELF”  this months challenge #130 is to always include a picture of yourself and to use circles.   I have a double circle around my title and the 3 circle buttons.

This was taken last year on a two day trip my brother and I took to pick up a car he had bought, we flew to Texas and then drove home with a couple of Route 66 stops for us.

LOVED

 


Just sitting on our screened porch enjoying a great Spring afternoon, nice breeze and a nice view.

I’m entering this layout at  “CHALLENGE YOURSELF.

With the challenge #129 being to create a layout using lots of Patterned Paper that is just what I did, no card stock at all.  I have 6 different patterned papers I used.  From my background down to the gray marbled pattern paper around my picture.


I also used the sketch at “SKETCH AND SCRAP” Facebook page Crop #1 sketch for September.
