Birdwatching Even on Vacation

Good Morning and welcome to the 1st post of the day :) Use Your Stuff challenge blog has a fun challenge today: This week, we are challenging you to create a project that uses one or all of the 3 b's; birds, bees or butterflies. I chose birds for my feature today:

This layout was fun to create using a grid format. The prompt was brought about from LOAD Mini2018 Out of this World. The prompt for Day 6 was Supermassive Blackhole: A black hole absorbs all around it. What takes up your energy? What do you gravitate towards? The technical prompt was to use a dark background. Definitely gravitate towards birdwatching and I used a dark background :)

  Did some birdwatching even while on vacation. On the 9th Street Pier on the Eire Lakefront. While waiting on the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame to open we did some exploring on the pier checking out the old Steamship that was docked there as a museum and the barn swallow seem to be watching us :) The gull was taking a break and looking for something to eat while we were there

The Good Stuff - Lasting Memories Scrapbook Challenge

Hello and Welcome :) to today's challenge over at Lasting Memories Layout Challenges. We have a fun theme for October and today's challenge is one that anyone could join in on:

 

Our theme for October is - October Events - and this week our challenge is:

LM # 417 - Breast Cancer Awareness.  October is Breast Cancer Awareness month.  Show us a way that you help out this worthwhile cause or just use lots of pink on your layout.

Here is the layout I created with this challenge in mind because of the pink used:

This was completed during the LOAD Mini: Out of this World over the summer where we do 1 week of LOAD. I used paper from my Perfect Collection Class for this very quick layout. The prompt was: LOAD Mini: Out of this World: Day 1: SPACE: Scrap about a physical space you love or something that requires a lot of your mental space. How do you make space for yourself? or you could created a layout with white space.

I would have to say I love to be out in the yard this time of the year to enjoy seeing God's creation through the flowers we have about the yard. Summer 2018. Between the beginning of Spring and throughout the summer I love to see the flowers we have growing around the yard. 

My title work coming from my counterfeit kit in August 2018: Summer Life. The title definitely came from the kit and so did the embellishments.

 The journaling block is a bit hard to read and I darken up the image so it's a bit easier to read.

Love to be out in the yard this time of the year, especially when the flowers are in full bloom. Summer 2018
