Challenge Me Wednesday

I can't believe we are half way through this month already!  Well, this week it is my turn to take part in the September 2012 "Let's See The New Stuff" Challenge by sharing what I made using some of the new products in the new MemoryWorks catalog.  I have to admit, I received my order monday afternoon and made this layout yesterday.  I would have ordered sooner but I thought I would have been moved by now.  So I like how my layout turned out and I'm sure my brother will too when he sees it.

This layout is of my brother after getting his first elk. He was one of the lucky few people who won the lottery for Elk Hunting. The Bull weighed in at 526 lbs. dressed, its estimated live weight was 686 lbs, and was 7.5 years old. He had the head mounted but unfortunately it is kept in the garage because one of his beagles starts growling and barking at it when she sees it. Lol.

 

 

Happy Scrappin'!
