October Sketch!

Layer, layer, layer!! That's one of the best tips I ever received and it really makes a difference in the dimension of your pages.

 This layout is of another one my girls.  The photo is actually a tossed out pic from a shoot I did of her.  I thought it was sort of spooky, so I decided to use it for this kit.  

This is a photo of my oldest daughter.  I love this photo of her.  I altered it a bit and made it B&W.

I used a frame from Dusty Attic to create this mask!! I love the two tones of it!!

 I made this wall hanging out of chipboard.  I covered it with bits and pieces of the papers in the kit and applied mod podge for the glossy look.
