LIVE YOUR DREAMS ~ CHALLENGE YOURSELF

Good afternoon on this lovely day.
I wanted to join in the challenge at Challenge Yourself that finishes on the 4th Nov



The colours reminded me of Autumn and that is what I intended to scrap, as the town I live in is very beautiful in Autumn and I have lots of lovely autumn inspired photos, but none with me in them! 
So after several attemps of a layout I decided to just go with the colour pallete and this is what I ended up coming up with.
Live your dreams.




The chipboard is from A 2 Z Scraplets, it was a full frame , which I have broken apart to use in opposite corners of my layout. I threw a lot of different media at it , gesso embossing powder, more gesso, metalic rub ons.
The gorgeous travel embellishment was made by my friend Bec (I love it)



The "life itself is a wonderful adventure" was gifted to me by another beautiful friend Lizzy  (these girls know what I like )
The cute flair is from StudioFourteen40



When we were leaving Germany the lovely couple where we were staying said "You must go to Heidelberg and go to the castle" so to Heidelberg we went  :) and they told us how Elvis Presley left his heart in Heidleberg. 



The other part of the chipboard piece.
Thank you for calling by, I appreciate your feed back . It's been a long post so if you are still here Thank you.

Love , Peace and Kindness
