I love layouts with several photos because I take lots of photos, especially of my beautiful granddaughter.  This sketch from MDS Monday fit the bill.  Even then I had to pick out the 5 best ones!  It is getting hard to get really good photos these days as this 10 month-old girl is constantly moving....walking all over the place. So while she was sitting at the table I was able to get some good shots.

For the sketch this week at MDS Monday I used some more photos from our last visit with our granddaughter and our daughter.

When I went to the post to get the link for this challenge, I realized that I had forgotten that most of the page was supposed to be neutral colors.  So I went back to my MDS program and reworked the page to fit the specifications for the challenge.  Below is my original page.  I really liked how it turned out and it is the one I will actually use in my photobook when I get it printed.

The Technique Twist 08 - Bokah

I have never even heard of Bokah before this challenge at The Technique Twist!  If I understand it correctly, in simple terms, the background is kind of blurry while the main image is in focus.  Well, my twist was to stamp my tree from Season of Friendship (retired) and add fall colored leaves.  I stamped off on my trunk and then used generational stamping with the leaves and used a plain round stamp to stamp some grass.  Then I spritzed it all with water to try to blur it some more.  My focal point leaves are from the Best of Autumn and the label if from Label Love.  Not sure I have done this right, but here is my card.
