Take a stroll down Inspiration Alley…SEPTEMBER Mid month SKETCH Inspiration

This midmonth's sketch was inspired by Michelle’s “Queen of Unique” layout…a great sketch to work with our clustering feature this month.
Michelle’s Comments: - Queen of Unique A really simple 8.5 x 11 LO, with the photo, papers and embellishments all clustered, allowing for lots of "white space". I think the Autumn Leaves rubon makes this page!!!
