Classes : Celebrate the Seasons - November 2009
By Nichol Magouirk
November's seasonal layout focuses on Thanksgiving. For those of you who have already had your celebration (Canadians) or for those International peas consider a layout focusing on Fall, Family Traditions, the Blessings in your life or any other seasonal celebration (birthdays, etc.) that are important to you.
This month's sketch has room for lots of photos (I used 22 photos on my layout and filled in the rest with patterned paper). Consider changing photo sizes and orientation to meet your needs. Since my smallest photo boxes are 2"x 2", I went with 2"x 4" and a 4"x 6" photo in addition to the 2" squares. You could also incorporate 4"x 4", a large 8"x 8", etc. Whatever works for you and your photos.

This month your challenge is to use stickers on your layout. Since the Garden Theme for November is all about using stickers I thought it would be fun to work off that for this month's challenge. I incorporated several 7Gypsies stickers into my layout and some American Crafts number stickers.
To participate:
Create a 1 or 2 page layout using a sticker (traditional or digital).
Layout can Digital, Traditional or a Hybrid. :)
You are not required to use the sketch.
You may scrap any theme/holiday but try to stick to a fall/November celebration or activity (whatever says "Thanksgiving", "Autumn" or "Novemberr" to you or your family. Family birthday's and celebrations (i.e. anniversaries, reunions, etc. are all good).
Submit your layout by uploading to the gallery by December 4, 2009 11:59 EST. Don't forget to click the box next to this class (Celebrate the Seasons November 2009).
