DT Lasting Memories No 517 ( Our Autum Baby )

 Hello everyone 

I for one  cannot beleive its a new month, here in Australia we entering into Spring, with our lovely warm days, whilst our  counter parts in  the Northern Hemisphere are now in Autumn.

Hence this month's   challenge over at "Lasting Memories" is "Hello Fall"

http://kcclayoutchallenges.blogspot.com

The first challenge is "Turning Leaves" and to create a layout with mainly Brown, Orange  Red and Yellow 

I  chose to use some  really old papers from a magazine which cease trading several years ago. I haven't used it as i don't seem to get many Autumn photos, as where i live in Australia, Autumn is a when the weather starts to cool down  to the mid 20s  and we can turn off the air-conditioning as most nights its comfortable to sleep without it.

I went with the colour tones and a great grandson who was born in that season.
