I'm sharing this page at Scrapbook Fantasies October mood board challenge.
Mood board inspiration = the owl!  I've had this little metal owl embellie in my stash for ages; time to use it. I used papers from Basic Grey Porcelain collection, and added a Scrapbook Fantasies Colour Cut from the Aussie Grunge collection.

This is a fold-out page - here's what it looks like in the journal:

White with PINK

Time for my layout share for White with 1. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month.

Here's the mood board and challenge criteria ~

Use PINK and butterflies on a WHITE background to create your layout using any other elements from the image as additional inspiration.

I included lots of butterflies in the background {My Favourite Things Mixables - Winged Beauties stencil with Ranger/Tim Holtz Distress Inks - Tattered Rose & Spun Sugar} and some punched butterflies too.  I also loved the heart shape design, so I added a few little crystal heart stickers.
