August Quote Challenge

**prettypeony** · 07-31-2012

For the August Quote Challenge, it's going to be about nature. Nature is all around us. Even if you live in a busy city, you're bound to see something of nature. I think a lot of us are so busy with work and trying to get so much done that we forget the most important thing in the world: the beauty of nature that is all around.

For this challenge, I'd like you to focus on one piece of nature and scrap about it using a quote, poem, song, word art, phrase, etc. It doesn't have to be about what you think of nature if that is something you might struggle with scrapping. It could be your point of view of a family member, a pet, etc., view of nature. Just have fun.

Here is what I've put together for the challenge. You can use it in your layout if you choose to.

Gorgeous!! i mean the word art as well as the page you created! The poem is perfect - i have always liked Shelley's poetry and that little poem is a sweetie. Thank you for the word art mask!

We look forward to seeing your layout using it. Do you have ideas for a photo you'll use?

**jayleigh3** · 08-02-2012

i do have - one of my hobbies for the past 100 years (heh heh) is photographing old farmsteads, especially barns. i captured my favorite old barn on a winter day when the snow was just perfect and the evergreens were laden with it. It is one of my favorite photos of that barn, and that is the one i believe i will use.

**Hummie** · 08-02-2012

Oh! I love old barn photos too!! Can't wait to see yours.
