There are only two months left for this class. This past year has gone by so quickly. I am sad that this class is almost over but so very excited to begin working on next year's all new class. :)
It's starting to be that time of year where scrapbook time can be limited. Lots of family activities and other seasonal traditions that take up our time (and rightly so!). This month's sketch incorporates lots and lots of photos (if you want it to) or you can do like I did on my layout and fill in the empty spaces with patterned paper squares. Minimal embellishments and journaling directly on a journal tablet sheet completes November's layout.
November's Sketch:
November's Layout:
Almost everything on this layout was pre-made: the stickers, the florals (I layered mine for dimension and interest), the journaling sheet, etc.).
I did die cut several items to include them on my layout: the title is a Silhouette corner title design (you could easily duplicate this look with stickers, chipboard alpha, rub-ons, etc.) and the 2" squares "thankful", "blessed" & "gratitude" were cut down from Silhouette Print & Cut designs. I simply printed them on photo paper, then instead of running them through the Silhouette to cut them "as is", I used my paper trimmer to cut just the portion I wanted to use on my page.
I thought the border of the page looked a bit plain and because the page is so linear and busy with photos I added a bit of fun with punched borders that I adhered randomly. It gives a nice, playful feel to such a linear page. :)
