As mentioned earlier in the month our featured sponsor this month is a fabulous online store and kit club The Flying Unicorn. SO I have invited their Design Team to be our Guests this month and create with our August challenge. But first, here is a little about The Flying Unicorn.

The Flying Unicorn has been SO generous and donated 3 prizes for us in July! Just check them out below...
Theme: Season (Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring)
We would like you to create a layout and interpret the theme "Season" however you like based on the following sketch. You can journal as little or as much as you like, but your layout must incorporate this theme and the sketch below. Please make sure that we see some sort of journalling on your layouts and please tell us where your journalling is . Hidden journalling is perfectly fine.
Ideas for journalling: current season in your part of the world, favourite season, seasonal traditions on your part of the word, a childhood memory, a summer romance, what summer/autumn/winter/spring brings for you, baby it's cold outside, summer loving, spring is in the air, autumn breeze, summer holidays, seasonal changes, etc etc. Anything goes ..
Now here is some wonderful inspiration from the Design Team at The Flying Unicorn.
