Here is my TN spread based on the sketch AND Lori's September challenge!

 Supplies Used: Patterned Paper: American Crafts Field Trip (red & stripe), Bella Blvd Let's Go on an Adventure (green dot) & American Crafts Little by Little (black & White) ; stickers: Simple Stories Travel Notes; ephemera: Bella Blvd Let's Go on an Adventure; label: Jillibean Soup.

This is our attempt at a selfie in front of the fountain on The Plaza in Kansas City, Missouri this past August.  It is hard to take a selfie with someone who is a full foot taller then you lol!  My son was a good sport though as he is not a fan of selfies but knew I wanted to document this trip of us.  It was super hot that day and the sun was so bright so not the best picture taking conditions but that just adds to the special memories we made!  My son was born in Kansas City but we moved to Texas when he was just 4 months old.  He was interning this Summer in Kansas City so it was the perfect opportunity to visit him and show him the city in which he was born!!  Once again I combined scraps from multiple lines to made my spread and I was super excited to see how these lines all combined together!  The sticker sheet from the Simple Stories Travel Notes line is so fun but I didn't have any papers left from that line so I had to combine the stickers with other papers and I was super pleased at how well these stickers combined with the other lines of which I had no embellishments left over!  It's definitely a fun challenge to try and use up left overs in this fashion!! 

 For Lori's challenge I used hearts, ephemera, a label, and polka dots (green paper)

This month we have a little bonus for you as well~ we have a Guest Designer playing along with us!  Our Guest Designer this month is Sandi Pressley!  

 Here is a bit about Sandi:  Hi, I am Sandi Pressley from Palm Coast, Florida which is on the east coast of the state between St. Augustine and Daytona Beach. I am recently retired from selling roofing and building materials and am enjoying my retirement so far more than I even imagined. I have been a paper crafter for nearly 13 years now. I love all size canvases from cards to 12x12 traditional layouts. This year I started my personal memory keeping of life with my wonderful and crazy husband in a Traveler’s Notebook and I must say, I really love this size. The pages come together quickly especially when using one of Lisa’s awesome sketches and paired with a fun challenge from Lori. 

I was born and raised in Chicago. When Dave and I were married in 2003 we moved to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina where we lived for 4 years until moving to Florida. I have two sons that still live in the Chicago area and they have given me 4 grandchildren ranging in age from 18 to 8...... Jake, Cole, Abby and Izzy. Their pictures and activities fill the scrapbooks on my shelves.  

Besides crafting, I like to read, go out to lunch with friends, go to the gym and research future home improvements to keep my husband busy on the weekends. We are soon to become dog parents to a French Bulldog puppy. This layout is the first of many I am sure I will create about our new little girl. 

Thanks to Lisa and Lori for inviting me to guest design here this month. I had a lot of fun working with the sketch and challenge.

Here is Sandi's layout using the sketch and Lori's challenge: 

Now it's your turn I can't wait to see what you create!  One randomly selected winner will win this fun set of Layered Heart stickers from Pinkfresh Studios!!!  They will make the perfect accents for your TN or scrapbook pages!  

We did not have our minimum of 3 players for our last challenge so there are no winner this month. THANKS for stopping by my blog, I hope you are inspired to play along with me this month!!!   Happy creating!!

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!
