September 2024 Designer Tip With Connie Prince

  

This month's post will feature layouts from my Apple Pickin' Collection!

Apple Pickin'

One of our all time favorite Fall activities is going to visit the apple orchards.  Now that we've moved to Florida, we may have to visit the Orange groves instead!  However, I digress, we loved to go to a pick your own location that also had loads of other fun attractions like a bakery that featured lots of apple flavored items.  If you have an orchard nearby, I encourage you to take a visit this Fall!

Let's take a look at some layouts using this collection!

The collection is, of course, perfect for your apple orchard visits!

Or show off the apple of your eye!

Yummy treats deserve to be documented, too!

Have a beautiful day!

DYL: CANINE CUTIES with Diane, ADB Designs

 

Do you, or have you, loved "man's best friend"? Then ADB Designs' Canine Cuties is the collection for you! Scrap your dog, a friend's, or a family member's canine!

The elements are just so sweet - there are lots of doggy things like a bed, dish, food, collar - all the things dogs love and need; as well as ribbons, frames, flowers and foliage. The colors are wonderful: a variety of dog browns and grays with accents of melon, pink, lavender, aqua and green.

#193 Question/Scrapbooking Prompt(s)

• Create a page about a special canine in your life!

These prompts are ideas to help you get started. I also have a gift for you to help speed your page completion. With this stunning gift (contributed by my amazing Creative Team Member: Renee) you can finish a page quickly. 

Be sure to keep scrolling for information about additional beautiful gifts from this collection!

I hope you find inspiration from the layouts of my awesome Creative Team. Here are their layouts along with the previews from the collection.
