Scrap Attack Scrapbooking and Scenic Route...

The first part of my Scrap Attack Scrapbooking DT projects were with the ever fun, and perfect for school pages was playing with the Scenic Route Appleton Line... which I just LOVE, I LOVE everything from Scenic Route in fact.... But these newer photos of Austin were perfect to use with this one... and in fact I even threw in a page from my very own high school grad.. YES it's been awhile... But I just adore this fun line....

Scrap Attack Scrapbooking DT reveals

So this month for Scrap Attack Scrapbooking DT pages, I got to play with the EVER fun and VERY girlie Autumn Leaves from Heather Bailey..... I just love how bright, fun and pretty all the papers and colors are from this line.. the ribbon is die for, stinkin cute!!! I loved playing with it and esp sewing it onto the pages... I made all these pages for my lil sis, Katelin so she can have some fun photos up in her college apartment...

Finally Scrapped last night...

Finally got a chance to scrap, I haven't had much time lately.. We are trying to get our lawn and outdoors ready and winterized, so been doing that, plus the soccer and coaching takes up a lot of the week, and I've been awfully tired lately... But last night I got to scrap and some other pages, but I will post these later.. These are my "homework" challenges from Simply Obsessed Scrapbooks, which have been really fun. The top page included some hand stitching, which I have really enjoyed and only done a couple of times, the bottom is a page of an old photo of my dad...
