I hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I enjoyed the special time that I spent today with my family and am grateful that we could be together. The day however did not go as well as I had planned. First of all, half way through cooking the turkey, somehow the oven got turned off. I was in a panic, and turned the temperature up higher, hoping to speed up the cooking process. Unfortunately it left the turkey a little dry. I had baked a pumpkin pie earlier in the day, and I guess when I turned the oven off (I have a double oven), I accidently turned off the wrong oven.
Here is a layout that I have been working on the past few days. It is another fall one. I absolutely love the colors of fall, and am always amazed at the beauty in the leaves when they turn color. I took this picture a few years ago at a park down the street from my house. The paper I used is by Daisy D's. I love this line of paper and was saddened when they went out of business. My goal lately has been to use up the old, before bringing in any more new. I used lots of Prima flowers on this one. Some I altered by adding decorative brads by Making Memories, others I inked and some of the flowers were cut from the patterned paper and then I added some pearls. The glitter frame is by Making Memories and I used the Cricut Storybook cartridge to cut out the backing behind the photo. I also used a decorative corner punch by EK Success.
TFL!

Autumn Layouts
Fall is my favorite time of the year. I have always been fascinated by the leaves as they change color. A few years ago my sister and I took ride to a LSS in Eldersburg, MD. The fall foliage was break taking. We stopped at a Kmart and bought a disposable camera. My layouts showcase the pictures we took that day.
Mitten Weather
This is a layout of my two kids a few years ago. We had a good amount of snow and they were headed to the back of our property to sled down a big hill. I based my layout on a sketch over at http://stuckonusketches.blogspot.com/.
