Archi - Scraps Challenge - Horses

Well I don't know what I was thinking when I pull my September Counterfeit Kit - Fun Times.  I pulled a bunch of paper that I only had one sheet left and I normally have two or three sheets. Normally that means that I am making one page instead of my normal three pages. Well I made three today.  Archi-Scraps Challenge for the month of September is "Horses".

 I just love their inspiration photo.

Well I thought "I've got this!!" Do you think I could find a picture of branding, moving cows from one pasture to another, a trail ride, hauling hay in the winter, barrel racing, or even roping? Heck I would have settled for one of the parades we were in. Goodness I've lived on the back of our horses since I could walk, I know I have horse pictures. So I dug some more and found these pictures of the Jousting at the Renaissance Festival a couple of years ago.

My paper is from my third set of paper and it's perfect for this layout. I added some colorful banners on the top left to represent the colors on the horses. I cut the shaft of the arrows down and glued it on top of each other. I started to use my alphabet dies for the title but switched to the stickers as they were just to big.

My journaling reads:
The Renaissance Festival was moving to a new location We stopped and had breakfast on the way. Left our tickets at home and had to have Doug meet us with them (good thing he was home).

I used a couple more of the arrows on the top of layout then a tag I had in my stash. I wanted to leave a spot for their journaling. The center picture is popped up on craft foam so they can tuck pictures behind it.

As for my youngest's layout I cut down the photo mat just a smidgen then added smaller one to the left.
