LM #521 - Hello Fall - Monsters

Hello, everyone! Welcome back to Lasting Memories - we are so happy that you have stopped by today. I hope that you all are having a good weekend.

Before we get to our last challenge we want to say a big thank you to our guest designers, Sue and Shannon. They have shared such beautiful layouts with us all month long and I have really enjoyed seeing their creations each and every week!

Today is our last October challenge and it is another fun one! As a reminder, our theme for October is - Hello Fall - and we are featuring a variety of events and things you can find in October during the fall in the USA. The last challenge of the month is:

LM #521 - Monsters

Did you know that October 25th was originally called Frankenstein Friday? Frankenstein was created in a lab by a mad scientist and is one of my all-time favorite Halloween monsters. We thought it would be fun to create a layout with some sort of monster on it. Whether it is your kid dressed up as one, your dog, or just a sticker you use.

Here's a look at the beautiful creations from the design team, starting with our guest designers:

After speaking to some crafty friends about their reluctance to join online challenges because they are often concerned their entry "won’t be good enough”, I wanted to make a DT layout that is as simple as it comes.. cardstock base sprayed with some mist + grey mat with pattern paper on top and over on the side + some netting + more mats & photo + finished with alpha stickers for a title. PLEASE know that there is no such thing as “not good enough”.. Scrapping should be fun, a passion, a hobby! Please don’t be intimidated, come along and join us!

I just realized that I have not posted the Top 3, GDT picks, and winner for September. I will post September and October's Top 3, GDT picks, and winners together, after the October challenges close - hopefully by Tuesday, November 3rd.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! We look forward to seeing your creations!
