September Design Team Reveal

September is drawing to a close and here in Michigan Fall is making its presence known. It has been raining, overcast, and chilly. So let's take a look back at the end of summer with the bright colors from the September kit. Don't forget to scroll down a few posts to see the sneaks of the October kit.

"Like A Real Man" by Tonya Dirk Tonya really showed off her son's pipes in this layout. The bright colors work so well for boy or girl layouts. And I love how she used those numbers as an embellishment as well as to tell the story.

"Kindergarten" by Stacy Cohen I really love the clean layering and design and how Stacy made that little Maya Road chipboard house look like a real schoolhouse with the white outline.

"So Silly" by Rachel Hall Awesome layering in this 8 1/2x11 layout from Rachel. She added a vintage children's book page here and added her signature hand stitching border around the page. I also love the arrangement of the photos.

"Heart Song" by Lucy Edson This photo is fantastic but my favorite little part of this layout is the rubon on top of the white space in the photo. It just speaks volumes for this picture. Lucy also did some fantastic handcutting and layering here.

"Escape" by Larissa Albernaz I am in love with the banner Larissa made that goes across the bottom of the page and the embellishments she added to it. I also love the splatter of ink. Great picture as well.

"Tired?" by Hilde Janbroers Keeping with the handcutting a lot of the girls did this month is this layout from Hilde. She cut those clouds from the Cosmo Cricket Earth Love paper. She also layered a few piece of the patterned papers along with a journaling spot.

"Thank you" by Karen Grunberg Our resident simple scrapper took some very busy patterned papers and toned them down by including bits here and there. Her perfectly lined up journal strips and small and elegant embellishments don't compare to those blue eyes. Do I even need to comment on what a handsome guy David is becoming? I think not.

Unfortunately, Mia has been suffering from some poor Internet issues and has not been able to post her projects yet, but let me assure you they are coming. She even has some instructions coming for assembling a mini album using the kit's Melissa Frances mini album and some mists as she is known to use every now and then. So stay tuned and I will be sure to point out her projects when we get them posted.
