September Challenges!

 Hello Hello! Well can you believe how fast this month has flown by? My goodness, is the down hill run to December seeming to get quicker each year?? I surely don't know! Well I am here to pop up the 3 layouts I have created this month for September challenges..plus one that was published in the latest Scrapbookers journal... here we go!

The first layout is for The Hut Creative on Facebook and it is a fabulous sketch.. I do love a good sketch, the hard work of the foundation to a page is there to inspire and get the page started.. the sketch looks like..


I stuck to the sketch but I did rotate it once clockwise to suit my photos.. I have used some fun photos of my grandson dressed in his space suit!!

The space embellishments were either stickers I had or what I printed from Pinterest. I added glitter glue for some sparkle!

Reach for the stars


At the moment he has a love of space and planets, so one day he will look back on this layout and remember it!

The next layout is for the challenge over at Soul Scrappers on Facebook and it is for the One Word Challenge and we are to use H, S or A for the title word for our layout.. I went with S for Smile..
