November Challenge

Hello everyone!

Welcome to our November challenge. THANK YOU all for playing along with us last month. We read so many beautiful stories and saw so many amazing pages! Thank You for sharing your stories with us!

On to our next challenge! This month we will play with... INSPIRATIONS :-)

Have fun and take care!!!

Journalling Theme: "Inspiration/I am inspired by etc..."

You are free to interpret our theme ANY WAY you like. It is for your inspiration and this theme word DOES NOT need to be part of your title or journalling. But please make sure your layout is based on the sketch below and includes journalling (hidden journalling is fine). Acceptable journalling is MORE than just a sentence, or generic writing such as date/place etc. It needs to be present and at least 3 lines long. Remember, hidden journalling (under a photo/tag or behind your page) is perfectly fine but please DO let us know in your post where your journalling is! 

Please welcome the winner of our September challenge
KSU [Russia]

My name is Ksu (Kseniya), I live in Kemerovo (Russia) with my family: lovely hubby and cutest daughter. I love scrapbooking in my life and I’m getting inspired by all things around me. I love freestyle and mixed media. I’m so excited to be OUAS Guest Designer, it’s an honor for me! Thank you for the interesting theme of the challenge. I created the layout about my inspiration - my wings of creativity! My journaling on the LO says: "Just spread your wings and be inspired!"
 Also I have a long journaling on the other side of LO, but it is very personal. It reminds me to love every moment of my life and it makes me smile.
Thank you for the invitation, I was glad to create with OUAS and tell you about my life and my inspiration!
  Ksu's blog is  I Love This Moment
 And here is her amazingly GORGEOUS LO

 Now here is what our Design Team came up with. Please click on their blogs for more details on their creations. I am sure they would love to hear from you !!!
