Hi everyone, Mou here and welcome to the ninth 'Take the Challenge' of 2013!
Every month, on the first Monday, I'll post a challenge and my take on it. You'll have 12 days to take this on. Leave a comment to the challenge post with a link to your creation based on that challenge. The following Monday, we will pick TWO winners randomly from among the readers who participated in that week's challenge. And the winners will get a prize from Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft®.
September is here already! Apart from celebrating two birthdays in the family this month, we are also wrapping summer up. The children are back to school. Extra-curricular activities are in full swing. We are settling into a new routine. Busy times! Looking back, I'm cherishing some beautiful summer memories.
So, today's challenge is about creating something about your favorite summer memory or memories.
So, today's challenge is about creating something about your favorite summer memory or memories.
I collected some such precious memories in a mini book I created with Gesso, Gelatos, Gel medium, Stamper's Big Brush pens, PITT Artist's pens, and some patterned papers, canvas and paper diecuts, stamps, stickers, and a burlap album from Little Yellow Bicycle.
I hope you too will take this creative challenge!

I tried gelatos at an expo and fell in love. They are like adult finger painting without the mess!!!! Anyway, here is my first attempt at a page with them. Thanks for letting me share and play.
