The Digital Press - Oct21 challenges

I've had such a busy month scrapping for CT commitments that I left these challenge layouts for The Digital Press to literally the last minute... ouch. But having planned them this week they did come together pretty quickly.

This and That by Cornelia Designs

Family template by Rachel Etrog

Golden Ratio by Dawn by Design

Filmstrip by Laura

Moodboard by Mari Koegelenberg

and also the template by ninigoesdigi which I did at the beginning of the month.

And with that I think I am done with scrapping commitments for October. Will take a breather for a day and then it all starts again on Monday.

Edited 3 Dec: My filmstrip layout got picked as a Digital Scrapbook favourite for November

Miss Fish Templates - Panoramic Mania

 Juli has a lovely template bundle available today, perfect for large photos. It's called Panoramic Mania.

The Scrappy Kat - Grilled

I played with a new release kit from The Scrappy Kat called Grilled. This is perfect for all our braai photos.

I also did a few of  the quickpages for this kit

You can pick up this kit as well as a few others released today in the freshly baked section at Gingerscraps.

Dandelion Dust Designs - Oct21 Mojo Mods

I had lots of fun doing the challenges of the last few months with the new format that I couldn't not do them again this month though once again I've left them to the last week of the month to finish, so it's been a mad rush to the end.

These layouts were created specifically for these challenges:

Four Squared

Terrible Twos

Half and Half

Oh No, No Photos

These two challenges, Front and Centre & Perfectly Paired, were both done with Miss Fish Former Freebie templates posted earlier this month.

Gingerscraps - Oct21 Challenges

October is a lovely spring month for us but in the US it's all about Halloween. Yuck if you ask me! So seeing as the reward for doing 10 challenges at Gingerscraps this month is a Halloween kit, I decided to give it a miss. So I only did a few of the challenges that I felt were still good ones to tackle, just without doing a full 10. I've still used lots of my CT layouts for the challenges as well so here is a summary.

Template 2

I used TSK Whoo? Me? kit for this layout.... love the little owls.

Memory Mix Up - layout for MissFish that I shared on 1 Oct

AYOB - Wild & Free layout from MissFish DSD bundle

Jumpstart Your Layout minikit - Before & After layout from MissFish Bake Sale

GS Rewards - Family layout from MissFish $2 Tues on 26th

Next month I will do another 5 layouts and then qualify for the freebie. Halloween is so not me so I am not stressed not to have done the challenges this month.
