🍂 Falling in Love – October Use It All Challenge

🍂 Falling in Love – October Use It All Challenge

Do you ever have one of those stressful days where you think to yourself, I NEED TO CREATE… but you’re short on time and pulled in a dozen directions? Today was one of those days for me.

I grabbed the October Use It All Mini and one of my favorite fall photos, and just started playing. Instead of picking papers one by one, I hit Command A (Control A on PC) to select all four papers and opened them together in Photoshop. No overthinking—just placing them into my layout. Then I repeated the process with the elements, dragging them in as they opened.

It turned out to be the perfect quick stress-reliever… and I love the result. This tree in our backyard never fails to put on a show. 🍁

Design tip: A participant in the UIA challenge colored the date she needed on the date strip. I copied the number I needed, added a thin stroke in the same color as my numbers, and it created the perfect subtle detail. 👌

Want to join in? Show us what you’re creating with the October UIA mini! Post your layout in the MyMemories Forum.


If you fall in love with the sampler, the full collection is just $5 this month! ✨

DYL: Sweet Caroline by Diane, ADB Designs


Who remembers Neil Diamond and his song "Sweet Caroline"? Its catchy melody, simple sing along lyrics and association with celebratory moments has made it a cultural phenomenon! Sweet Caroline is a wonderful collection to scrap up your happy times. 

The bright color palette inspired me! It includes: coral, pumpkin & tangerine; cranberry, magenta & fuchsia; teal & seafoam; goldenrod & ginger; and peanut & coffee. The elements are traditional and happy: word strips (including blanks), buttons, bubbles (!), frames, a lace butterfly, ribbons and bows, and flowers and foliage.

#219 Question/Scrapbooking Prompt(s)

  • Scrap a family photo
  • Scrap a page about a happy time

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 accent cluster (contributed by my amazing Creative Team Member: Dana) you can finish a page quickly.

The elements are so adorable: lots of watercolor animals, mushrooms, word strips and wordart, pine cones, ribbons, bows, flowers and foliage. The color palette is SO Fall! Pumpkin orange, gold and vanilla, forest and mint green, and slate and charcoal.
