You Are The Smile To My Face @ STAMPlorations

{My DT work for STAMPlorations}

Hi everyone! I'm back with my recent layout I did as part of my dt work for STAMPlorations. A new mixed media challenge begins today and you can do anything you wish except card. My wonderful teammates have designed fabulous creations to inspire you {click here}.

I made a single layout of my little girl jumping onto raked leaves while I was doing my garden. I have four topiary trees on my lawn that needs pruning every three months. So no they are not fall leaves so to speak, lol. We don't have four seasons but however my favorite season has always been autumn because the atmosphere looks so incredibly gorgeous. When Afza played with the pruned leaves three years ago, I thought it'd be great to take photos and pretend autumn {chuckle}. Finally I get to scrap her photo and she loves it.

Supplies used: Foiled Again ARTplorations stencil, Artsy Border Maker stamp set, Heidi Grace paper collection, Alpha gesso and modeling paste, Scrapberry: flowers, leaves, butterflies, adhesive pearls and gem, Petaloo flowers, Kaisercraft rub on, Buncho watercolors, alpha stamps, Micia brown ink pad, corner punch, EK Success funky fibre and others from my stash {beads+sequins+lace+gauze+rhinestones+eyelets+drywall tape}  

Some close-up photos:

My autumn inspiration comes from Scrapki-wyzwaniowo:

This stunning sketch at Scrapclub Kiev is used as a guide for my layout:

And I also wish to enter Scrapberry's challenge. I used part of the quote as title for my work:
