Autumn Week Challenge

TGIF to you!  Hope that you've got some fun plans for the weekend.  We've got another great winner to announce from last weeks Halloween challenge.  Congratulations to Valerie for your fabulous layout!  Love the misting!  This week I hope you'll play along to win a prize pack of new Remarks stickers.

Here's a great layout from Design Team member Danielle to help get you started...

Supplies:  12x12 White Cardstock (71081) - AC Cardstock,Here comes the Sun Paper (34982) - Blue Skies, Peaceful Easy Feeling Paper (34992) - Blue Skies, Elanore Battington Paper (34910) - Craft Fair, , Glee Large Set  (59098) - Clear Stamps, Black (62600) - Stamp Markes, Earth Tones Glitter Buttons (85425) - Elements, Blue Skies Fleece (77225) - Fieldhouse, Nutmeg Spinach (43044) - Thickers, Nutmeg White (43043) - Thickers

Danielle says: "Fall is definitely my favorite time of year. Leaf peeping means leaf gazing (or seeing) if you aren't familiar with the term. Even if the leaves don't change in your area, you can still take advantage of the beautiful natural light to get some great portraits outdoors. For this layout, I wanted a variety of colors to mimic the colors in the photo-oranges, greens and even blues. I modeled my embellishment tree after an AC stamp that I wanted to use, but it wasn't quite big enough for the title. I'm really loving the AC stamps and I enjoyed adding them to this layout. I added the glitter buttons for interest around the monochromatic journaling stripes. I can't wait to take even more photos this year!"Let's see what you come up with...

1. The layout must be posted to an online gallery or blog with American Crafts in your supply list.

2.  You must leave a comment on this blog post with a link to your layout online.  You also must fill in your email address when posting your comment on this blog post.
