This month’s theme for the scrapbook Challenge YOUrself layout is to include your favorite quote.
I have a few favorite quotes, but I decided to go in search of something new for my scrapbook layout.
I found a quote that said, “Just one small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day”.
I LOVE this! It’s so true and it worked perfectly for the layout that I had already made!
I used some new goodies from Close To My Heart to create my page.
I used the September stamp of the month, called Thoughtful Tokens, to do some background stamping, along with Sending You a Hug stamp set to create my own ephemera and die cuts.
I also got a fabulous crackle look behind on my background using the new Design Elements stamp set.
And I know you are wondering about that brick background! It’s a new stencil! It’s actually part of a fabulous new 12 x 12″ stencil bundle. I actually used the new Pumpkin ink to create that brick in a fun color for the background.
The florals are colored in using the Triblend Markers. You can get the deep blends or the essential blends.
Finally, I added some splatters in white and espresso to complete the page.
I almost forgot the papers…they are from the Mix In paper set for September and October.
Super fun! I would love to see what you can create for this challenge. Please join us…there are prizes throughout the month!!
Thanks for stopping by!
