Girl vs. Scrap | October Edition

Welcome to Girl vs. Scrap!

This is a 2 part challenge (ONE layout though), so make sure you're paying attention! (drinks DOWN!)

PART 1 - product challenge - use a layout template, BUT modify it in some way (flip it, tweek it, etc)
PART 2 - grab bag challenge - [pick ONE]

What the heck's a "grab bag challenge"?This an additional challenge that you'll need to tie into your layout, there will be several choices, pick ONE. Last month, I assigned which grab bag challenge you were going to get, but this month I'm going to let you have your choice, BUT....remember, to try to go outside your comfort zone on this! YOU CAN DO IT!

Once you have completed your layout, post to your gallery, then come back here and link us up to your lo. (so we can oooh and aaaah)

All participants will get their name on the Wall of Fame AND receive a sweet little GIFT from this month's sponsor, Micheline Martin!

PS. You can also upload your layout into the Girl vs. Scrap Flickr group (click the tab up top for more info!)

Here's what our team came up with....

journaling: I’m scared of you growing up! I know that you are a wonderful, beautiful little girl who gets more fabulous with every second but it still worries me a lot to think of you getting older. I worry about how others will treat you, how they’ll change you, and how you will react. I worry about how school will be, if you will play sports, and if I will be able to help with homework. Mainly I worry that you will get to old to need me.
