Pumpkin Pickin a Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog Hop

Hi you all and welcome to the November Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog Hop. With a Pumpkin Pickin scrapbook layout. If you are coming from the amazing Lisa's blog then your right on track. The challenges this month are:



I had already done #3 and plan to do #2 this week but chose today for Challenge #1. I have many Scrapbooking Pinterest boards so I was glad to see this challenge and took a look over at my Scrapbooking Board and found this fun layout to inspire me: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/11610911513465205/

This is such a fun layout and we had a fun day with Zachary and Tristan and of course their parents :) when they stopped by to pick up their pumpkins. A special first pumpkin picking picture with Tristan no matter how much we tried just couldn't get the 2 of them to look at the same time and it was at the point that Tristan was slipping from Zachary's grip but made a fun picture of the 2 of them :) 
 But we got the perfect picture of Zachary with his pumpkin :)
 I got to finish off the pack of  leaves in my kit so there is a package going into the trash (yay!) and was used on 3 different projects this month. I used it on the layout where it was also on the original layout.
 I punched the Blessed bingo card piece and a piece of the wood grain for the center embellishment piece on the layout, added a leaf too. I roughed up all the edges with my CTMH edge distresser tool (think it's the first time I used it since I bought it last year).
 A picture of Dave and Tristan in one corner and in the other a picture of me with Tristan. One of the best days ever for Pap and Gram. A layout completed for Tristan's 1st year scrapbook.
 I will be including this in Lasting Memories newest challenge All About the Titles: Thickers title with a rub on subtitle. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of the hop :) Next off to see what amazing project Susanne has done, did you see the pin inspired layout she did a couple days ago, will be pinning that to my board :)
 If you found me first, go over to Counterfeit Kit Challenge blog to start at the beginning of the hop. Maybe in the new year you'll join along with us and get those projects and layouts done :)
