I took this photo last year at a local pumpkin patch. Our grandsons really don't like the various scarecrows that decorate the patch. They are reluctant to pose with the locals!!!

Here are some closeups...

Beautiful Fall - Lasting Memories Layout Challenges DT Reveal

Good Morning, it is time for the latest Lasting Memories Layout Challenges Design Team reveal. We are continuing with the theme of "Around The House" for October. Today's challenge is to stamp with something other than a stamp.

I gathered some leaves from my yard for my layout....

I used a Hydrangea Leaf first adding Tim Holtz distress ink to the veins of the leaf.

It made a wonderful image on my background paper.

I added more ink with orange and yellow ink with Maple leaves. The maple leaves didn't have the detail that the Hydrangea leaf added, but I love the effect.

Here are a couple of closeups....

I used some bits and pieces to add layering behind my photo to bring out the colours in my photo.

Be sure to stop by the Lasting Memories Blog to check out what the rest of the team created. You have until October 28th to link up your designs.

Catching Up on December Daily

Well the weekend flew by as always and it is back to work this morning. I am just popping in quickly to share a December Daily page from 2016.

A project life type card to finish off a Christmas morning page.

I was inspired by the sketch from Sketches In Thyme Project Life Style sketch #87.

Here is my card with the rest of the page showing my husband with his favourtie gift!!! LOL!!!

I just love these little sketches...they get me moving in the right direction!!!

Final Fitting - Lasting Memories Layout Challenges DT Reveal

Happy Sunday morning everyone! Time for the latest Lasting Memories Layout Challenges Design Team Reveal. We are continuing with the theme of Around The House for October. Today's challenge is to use a Book Page or Sheet Music.

Here is my layout...

Well the title says it all...this was the Final Fitting day. And everything was perfect for my Girlie. It was such a pleasure to share these moments with her. XO

Here is each side of my layout...

And some closeups...

I used dictionary pages for my part of the challenge. I was picky on which pages I used. On the right side the frame is around the word dress and on the left side the word bride is highlighted.
