Fall into scrapbooking this month with Olivia!

Fall has arrived and the weather is beautiful!  (Well, if you don't count that today is very summerlike and it rained most of last week...)  Anyway, enough about NJ weather....let's focus back on Fall, beautiful colors, cool crisp air, apples, fright fests and all the things that the change of seasons brings in October.  Well, certainly after doing all these fun fall activities and taking photos of course, you'll need to scrapbook them!  The Olivia paper pack from Close to my Heart is beautiful with its balance of rich reds and browns complimented by the bright oranges and greens.  Great for whatever Fall has in store for you!

I am offering several Olivia Workshops this month so check out below for more info.  You will complete 4 pages no matter what level you choose. Pages will be different by level.
