Penn's Cave & Wildlife Park LO for Sketch N Scrap challenge

Good Morning and welcome. Here we are in the middle of October!  We've had some beautiful Fall weather and the leaves are changing to a golden yellow. The cooler weather has come in, not ready for winter yet so I hope the season slows down a bit. We got a fun challenge layout over at Sketch N Scrap for the day. This sketch was created by Lori:

Just a fantastic sketch this is! This is the layout I created with it

Using my last month's counterfeit kit for the layout as it's a companion page to one I did last month. This is what we saw when we came out of the cave and around the lake before heading back into the cave. It was over 90 degrees out so a fun way for the animals to cool off.

CKC - October 2024 Kit Reveal - Down to Earth

Welcome to my blog and the 1st of October! October is my Birthday month and it's also the members LOAD month plus it's Christy's Beautiful Life's 30 Days of Sketches series 14? I think it is, with a spin in doing just double page sketches this round. I can't guarantee I'll do it daily but I'll try to do it when I can. Now let's get to it! 1st of the month means it's time for a new inspiration for us over at Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog to challenge us to look through our own stash and choose a kit to play with. 1st you should have arrived here from Christine's Youtube channel I'm looking forward to checking out her kit and see what inspired her. We are thrilled to have Liz Ketter join us as Guest Forger I look forward to seeing what she creates. 

Master Forger JoJo is the host of October and her 1st hosting! Here is the Inspiration Kit she has chosen for us to counterfeit:

Our inspiration kit for the month will be Autumn Tale: Chilly Breeze, By Kristin Cronin-Barrow over at Sweet Shoppe Designs. I choose this kit for the beautiful fall colors and vibe also for the theme of documenting all your fall memories. I really love all the blues, especially the Denim.

This collection has a full kit and cards. Please check out the layouts that other have made with this collection kit for more inspiration.

 Love the Blues with the Oranges and Nuetrals too, such a Down to Earth collection and look at that I found out what the name of my kit is:

Down to Earth

My full kit for me October is the 1st full month of Fall and Fall is all about the Earth. Trees in color, cooler temperatures, falling leaves and we start getting ready for the Holiday season. So my kit resembles this alot with wood, fibers and such.
My papers I pulled from various sources. Some Creative Memories, Old Fancy Pants, Mind My's Eye and some Not Just for Boys kit club partial kits that just need used up!
Close up of all the PinkFresh Studio embellishments that I had in one of their old Fall collections
Some of the embellishments from a Not Just for Boys kit club kit
I picked out a few cut files that I want to use throughout the month too.
The wood pieces I chose for my kit. You'll probably see others throughout the month depending on what I'm scraping
The Alphas, words and word phrases I would like to use this month :)

Thanks for stopping by today to my little corner of the world. off you go to Julene's blog to see the kit she has pulled, if you get lost along the way the blog list is below. We look forward to seeing what you come up with for your kit this month at the CKC

Not Everyone Who Wanders is Lost LO for Sketch N Scrap challenge

Good Morning and welcome. Here we are in the middle of September Already!!?? how is this possible the year is going by to fast! It's been very nice the last few days here weather wise, time to get back to walking again now that it's not as humid out. We got a fun challenge layout over at Sketch N Scrap for the day. This sketch was created by Lori:

I love this sketch! I love to use multiphotos on a layout too since I love to take so many photos. So I did a grid of photos for that center spot so my white space around the photos isn't nearly as white as the sketch but you can see the sketch influence in the layout.
A walk on a beautiful Spring day in 2024, love to see the trees blooming and the bushes too around the apartment complex where I live. I have come to love wandering around the neighborhood in my area so I'm never lost just lost in the beauty of God's creation. I used my current counterfeit kit Smile for my layout and trying to finish up that Simple Stories Spring collection from last month.
