The month of October signals thoughts of the changing of the leaves. Some think of falling leaves during this month, not so much me down here is Florida! Let the leaves be your inspiration this month.
What inspires you to make a scrapbook page?
When I get some photos in hand they are a great motivation to make a layout, but then. . . where to start?
Sometimes everything moves right along and I can start a page, but that is not the norm. I need a starting point.
This challenge offers a bit of inspiration, hopefully, to get you going.
This month I challenge you to simply select your photo/photos first without caring what is to come. Then find something with leaves that can be used with them.
Here are some examples: a leaf stamp, patterned paper with at least some leaves, an embellishment that has a leaf somewhere on it. Only a few ideas offered here, you can go anywhere with this challenge to use leaves. The potential is huge, just use your hunting skills and go digging for leaves of inspiration.
You may combine other challenges, just remember to post all keywords and share a link to your page here. There is no time limit to share your layout!
Keyword: IFH19Oct Remember to add this keyword to your upload.

Thanks so much for the challenge of leaves, another Floridian here with leaves not falling till Spring when the oaks get new ones but I am always wishful for the brilliance of the changing of color! If only in my memories!!
I expect October will be the last month I scrap for a short time...I better make the most of it!
I think I actually have pictures of my kids playing in a tree that I'm due to scrap sometime in October, so this will be great inspiration. Thanks for posting, Joyce Ann!
Hi my players! I can't edit my original post, so I'm posting the link to the gallery submissions here. I'm excited to see what each of you come up with.
These pages don't go together, though. They are from two different 2 page layouts.
I will try to get the rest uploaded.
thanks, Joyce Ann! Gave me some inspiration at retreat.
Here's a leafy layout for this challenge. I didn't end up using my tree pictures yet so I may get to do another layout for this challenge later this month.
Cheryl reminded me of this challenge with her latest layout!
I have a kit made up for it but with all that has been happening I plum forgot! There is still time so I will pull that kit out and put it on my desk!!!
I am off to do this one - will post when I get back from the retreat. Hugz

Decided to post even though the picture quality is not the best. Combined with the IC challenge. Cased the CTMH catalog cover - the one before the new one.
