Farm Fresh

 It's New Issue Monday over at Paper Issues and the theme for this month is "Which Kraft!"

We'd love for you to play along with projects having to do with Halloween or October outings, using kraft elements (paper, embellishments, etc.), by adding some texture using burlap or cork, create a project about crafts you do, or use a witches' hat/broomstick/cauldron/black cat, etc.! We cannot wait to see what you create!

I played along using Shimelle's Fall line from last year, Go Now Go! If you missed this line last year, don't worry, because we have some left and it is such a great line, you won't want to miss out!

 

Thank you so much for stopping by to take a look! Be sure to check out all of the October challenges from Paper Issues in our Paper Issues {Friends & Fans} Facebook group!

I used the Starshine line from Shimelle for American Crafts for this layout of Anson comforting Jaxson during a thunder and lightening storm. This kid is NOT a fan of thunder at all! No thank you, please!

 I loved this celestial background paper and I wanted to use it for a layout where I would be able to see a lot of the paper. I did minimal layering with some patterned paper strips and chipboard from Shimelle's collections and then I added a few silver puffy star stickers from Twine & Ink to finish off the layout.

Simple and fun! Most importantly, another moment documented!
