Julie, could you please e-mail me your mailing information to cornellgj(at)yahoo(dot)com?

Today I have my projects to share for the October design team reveal at Elle's Studio. For my first layout, I used one of the Thankful Pennants to help create my title. My grandma recently celebrated her 89th birthday and I was able to get a few photos of the girls with her. The girls love visiting as Grandma always spoils them with Cheetos. :) I used a past Noel Mignon kit for the layout and there's a lot of My Mind's Eye featured here. 

I love the raw chipboard thickers...the perfect look for a heritage type of layout.

I also used a 3 x4 tag from Elle's Studio for my journaling...love that woodgrain! 

The little circle tag also had a great sentiment for a family layout.

For my second layout, I dove into the brand new "Ready Set Go" collection from American Crafts. Last fall, we had some photos taken of our family by {studio m} photography and I finally got around to scrapbooking the photos of Glen and me. My journaling focuses on how hard it is for us connect these days but we make time to talk and go on dates. Life has definitely changed since we added two girls to our family! And our love for each other is definitely a choice that we make at all times!

Love, love, love the stitched vellum hearts!

I love how Elle always includes date tags in her collections.
 

Finally, I also created a card using the new "Once Upon a Halloween" collection from Webster's Pages. How cute is that transparent owl? I have about scrapbooked all of our Halloween photos from last year but I definitely wanted to include some Halloween inspiration this month so there's a card!

 

Thanks for stopping by today! I'll be back tomorrow with my projects as the guest designer for the October kit from Gossamer Blue.
