3rd Place WMSPT Red C layout for a Counterfeit Kit Challenge

Good Morning and welcome to the 2nd challenge of the month over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog. Laura our hostess this month has challenged us to use that kraft piece that was in the inspiration kit: Our inspiration kit this month features a piece of Kraft cardstock, so my challenge to you is to create a layout or project featuring this forgotten favourite. It doesn't have to be cardstock or paper, it could be a tag, label or sticker.
I had already cut into the one I had in my kit for another project :) But I had enough left over to punch a border for my layout and I also added a kraft journaling card that was in my kit too.

 Our grandboys, OMgosh from 2012 (7 years ago!) Kraft worked perfect with that green and brown paper that I used for the layout. Added a banner (from the LOAD17 prompt which was a prompt to tell a story of an award too) I've had these pictures sitting what it seems like a long time in my photo box and so glad I finally got them on scrapbook paper :) Their 1st year playing and their team took 3rd place not to bad. I had fun using other elements from my Counterfeit Kit: Groovy Chic.

Boo to You LO - Use Your Stuff Challenge

Good morning and welcome to this week's challenge over at Use Your Stuff challenge blog. Mayo is our hostess this week and has challenged us to Use a Pumpkin on our project, Either on a photo, if you make layouts, a die cut, a stamp, whatever, as long as it's a pumpkin. 
Here is my take on that challenge:

 This was made from another challenge too, using chalks, for Nicole Jones Scrap-A-Thon 4 and also for LOAD1019 Day 1 prompt. Basically I went with being dressed up as the prompt was Drag for Tom Hanks series Bossum Buddies, yes we are doing a month of Tom Hanks inspiration, this girl could really having the blahs about it but a trooper and making sure the prompt works for me :)
So this picture has been hanging around for a while and finally thought I should scrap that one :) My 2 youngest kids Kevin and Jill, 1994, thinking this may have been the last time they went out trick or treating :) I even made Jill's costume :) As you can see I use a variety of pumpkins on the layout, even the ones that are in my counterfeit kit Groovy Chic this month in that box of chipboard.

Close up of the middle section, had fun creating the chalked background and will definitely be doing that again :) I finished up the purple Halloween dazzles I had and got that out of my stash :) plus some phrase stickers too.  Thank you for stopping by today and I look forward to seeing your creation for this fun challenge over at Use Your Stuff challenge blog.
