Thankful

Hi - I'm over on the Papermaze Blog today with my first tow layouts using this month's Papermaze kit. It is packed with papers and embellishments in the amazing colours of autumn. I have had so much fun working with the November selection. I have created  two pumpkin related layouts for my first post, here is the first of these two pages.

Thankful - This layout was inspired by a digital page that I saw on Pinterest (JoCee from Sweetshoppedesigns.com), however mine is made with paper and glue and it came out quite different! Catherine, George and Florence met up with friends at Spadework Charity PYO Pumpkins in West Malling.

Simple Stories - Simple Vintage Autumn Breeze collection - Welcome Fall
