TRY STAMPIN ON TUESDAY - #TSOT474

I've chosen to do a scrapbook layout for my project for this week's Try Stampin on Tuesday challenge - the sketch just seemed to lend itself to a page layout.  We are definitely in an Autumn frame of mind here in the UK and I had this lovely photo of my Welsh Springer Spaniel Tegan.

I started off with an autumn themed piece of 12 x 12 paper which I got as a pack of Autumn themed papers and I have no idea who made it.  The extra pieces of paper are from the same set.  I stamped and cut out leaves from SU Colourful Seasons together with some branches.  I've used the lovely Sunny Studio Mug Hugs stamp again for the mug and cut it out.

The letters are Tim Holtz shadow letters die cuts.  

SCRAPBOOK LAYOUT

I came across a new challenge the other day called More Than Words and it looked really interesting.  I chose to do a Scrapbook Layout of my son through the years.  I love the idea of the doors and the word Hello in the challenge.  Here is their challenge:

The papers are from Kaisercraft and I cut out those lovely doors from one of the papers from the Kiasercraft kit - the sentiment about the doorways to a life is my own. I found some lovely quotes from Tim Holtz Clippings Sticker Book which really suited the photos - especially the bottom one where it says "He Could Make it on his looks alone" while he is pulling a funny face - it makes me smile!  I added some keys and a little padlock to the doors - as a child you often wonder how your children will grow and what they will do.  My son is now an archeologist and we are very proud of him.  

I'm adding this into the More Than Words challenge
