TPV Challenge #53 - Layout Sketch

First of all.. YAY! My blog candy finally will have a home!  Jessica is the brand new owner of my little pile of goodies.  Congratulations Jessica!

This week, The Paper Variety is having a very fun challenge and one of my favorites since i started blogging and participating in blog contests... a SKETCHY challenge!

Look at the awesome sketch that our special guest designer, Aphra Bolyer, made to inspire you to play along.

Check out The Paper Variety to see Aphra's layout based on her sketch and all my fellow DT members' great work!  To be eligible for a prize, you have to link your project before noon on Tuesday October 4th, but remember that if you link up before Sunday evening, you have a chance to be spotlighted by TPV.  Also, if you would like to be a guest designer, don't forget to share your project on TPV's Facebook page.

Ready to know what you could win if you get a little sketchy this week?

Now on to a little more details on my project...

I had so much fun playing with Aphra's sketch! As usual, i made a double-page layout and the right side of my layout was inspired by another sketch at Canadian Scrapbooker for the Let's Get Sketchy Challenge.  (I realize the paper on the left side seems a bit crooked, but i assure you it's not IRL.  My aim just got a bit lopsided when i took the picture.)

Also, i decided to play along with one of the many challenges of Artful Delight's Birthday Bash Blog Hop.  Who doesn't love a Tic Tac Toe Challenge?

I went down the center and was able to use up most of my scraps of Imaginisce's Apple Cider; i included more than 1 button; and, obviously, was inspired by the many wonderful colors of the Fall season :)  Here are close-ups:

Happy Autumn!
