More fall inspiration + layout.

I have another fall page to share with you today. It was a page created for a page call that never got selected. Yes...I was rejected....haha! See even being part of the Dream Team, doesn't guarantee every page we submit gets picked up. Obviously the page didn't accurately meet the criteria for the article, which is OK because with the Creating Keepsakes October 2011 issue now out, I can go back to the article I work out where I went wrong. I'd like to believe that the rejected ones actually help me grow creatively as well as test my security. LOL!

Anyhow...this is the page in question. I love it actually. The rich colors make me happy whilst the mix of photographs clearly remind me of the day we spent at the dam. In terms of the page design, I love that the square photos bring a sense of control to the page yet the accents & elements are loose & fun!

The cute chipboard compass, barbecue & woodgrain alphas are from GCD Studios.
The chipboard sentiment labels are from Bella Boulevard & Cosmo Cricket.
I just found this on Pinterest...... seems as though I am not alone. hehe!

I'm glad you stopped by!

  3. Wow--gorgeous landscapes in those photos! I love this LO. Even if it didn't get picked up for publication, the most important thing is that it means something to YOU. I'm sure that every time you see it in your album, it will bring back memories of that wonderful hike.
