Scrapping Everyday Miracles - November Challenge!

Hi friends! I cannot believe it is November already! We had an awesome Halloween and the weather has been pretty good - and by that I mean we haven't had any big snow storms! I like November for getting ahead on any Christmas prep, but also feeling like I can do some non holiday related crafting without feeling like I should be doing Christmas stuff! Since we have already had Thanksgiving here in Canada that's not something I have to focus on either.

I wanted to scrap a couple pics of my youngest for this month's challenge on the Scrapping Everyday Miracles blog using the layout sketch and some cute pics I took of her this spring. Erica is such a tomboy, but when she does dress up you can see she makes it count!

I layered a piece of shiny black cardstock over some purple cardstock for a framed effect after adding some fun multicoloured stenciling using Ranger Texture Paste coloured with Distress Inks. It was so easy to mix the paste into some ink smooshed on my craft sheet!

I used some Kaisercraft stickers and paper diecuts to embellish my page with!

The #mygirl title is cut from an i heart studio file by Wilna Furstenberg. She has the most beautiful cut files!! I used my Cricut Explore and cut it out of watercolour paper. Then I used coordinating inks to match my stenciling and coloured the title. I just love how it turned out!

This was one of those pages that just came together so easily and I loved it immediately! I wish everything was that easy, lol! I'm sure the cute pics had something to do with it :0.

Here's the layout sketch this month:
