This month's theme is shadows. We thought it might be a fun twist on a spooky theme. Funny thing happened--it didn't turn out to be so spooky at all!!
[Except for our resident Halloween lovers. Who came through with some awesome Halloween home decor! (Just like we were expecting hoping!!)]
One of the greatest parts about a one word theme is all the different places it can take you.This might be one of our most diverse galleries in a long time. We hope you love it!
Is there a song lyric that will inspire your thoughts?
Or an amazing quote that inspires some thoughtful journaling?
We hope we can inspire you to document your little shadow. You know, the one that follows you everywhere. We know how easy it can be to forget to document our everyday things. And taking a picture of ourselves with our littles can be tricky. But made easier with a shadow picture.
The idea of having/being a shadow can extend to children, too. Do you have one that shadows another? Do you still walk in your sibling's shadow? Maybe this is the month to document it!
Can you use the idea of shadows as a springboard for an advice page?
Or as an opportunity to recognize your bounty?
And shadows can be an excellent starter to help you document your past.
Shadows present unique photo ops. You can create shapes with your shadows.
Additionally, consider the potential of using shadows as a new perspective on a family photo?
And the graphic nature of shadows makes them interesting for action photos.
Follow Vivian's lead and substitute a photo for a silhouette. This allows lots of space so you can journal up a storm!
Have you tried Cloud's splatter technique that she taught us a few weeks ago? Her layout this month shows off the splatter. It's not too late to try it! Be forewarned, it's addicting. And may delight your children as well.
And lastly, we know you have other hobbies. (Guess what? we do, too!) Don't forget to include them in your scrapbooks!

FAREWELLS
Lastly, the time has come to bid three friends farewell. We are devastated to lose three of our originals, Angie, Autumn, and Jody. We have pleaded with them to stay, we really did. But alas, our pleas weren't enough. We will miss them all and can't imagine our team without them. Witty, wise, and so good at what they do. We are glad to have been together for babies, moves, and cancer free announcements. We really do wish all three of you the best. Please stop by often. Pretty please. And thank you for all you have done for us! xoxoxoxoxo
