November at my house is
a busy time of year. We have birthday parties
galore, an anniversary, Thanksgiving (for those
of us living state side), and the kick off of
the craziest time of the year… Christmas!
Even though November is
a crazy month for me, it is also one of my
favorite months of the year. The crisp air, the
smells of goodies baking, and a holiday that
reminds us all to be more thankful for what we
are blessed with rank high on the list of why
November is my favorite time of the year.
As this month approaches
again this year, I find myself thinking about
the simple things in life that we often take for
granted.

Design note:
I
loved the idea of keeping the color palette the same for
the picture, paper and embellishments. The photo
becomes the main focus even though there are a lot of
elements on this layout.

Design note:
These photographs were taken by my daughter
of herself, and I could not resist doing a
simple but intricate layout to show off the
black and white photographs. As is my MO,
lots of hand cutting and pen work on this
layout, using my white pigment pen and black
and gold pen. |

Design note:
When I get a coordinating set of papers, I
always look for the hidden 'extras'. The
butterflies and scalloped paper borders were
cut by hand from a piece of paper and used
as embellishments. Also, to give the
butterflies added dimension, I lightly
folded the butterfly in half and then glued
ONLY down the center.
