September Guest Design Team Challenge

September is Back To School time for many and my favorite subjects were always Literature and Creative Writing classes.  So, for this month's GDT challenge, in addition to using the sketch below, please theme your layout something about reading.  It could be about your favorite book, use a line from a story, use some cover art as inspiration, etc.


This month's GDT Challenge is being sponsored by October Afternoon!



Up for grabs are a few items from the Modern Homemaker line:






Be sure to check out October Afternoon's blog, on Twitter and on Facebook.


The challenge will be live until 11:59pm EST Saturday August 20th.

Please leave a direct link to your entry in the comments on this post.

Have fun with it!!!

Here is mine...my interpretation of the reading theme is "read your mind". I actually love this layout!

One day last week I caught my son and Hubby on film, enjoying the new "Highlights" for the month. It seemed perfect for this challenge.
