Urban Scrapbook's Monthly Challenge - November

November already?! The month of fun Christmas Card making. I love making Christmas Cards. I have about a dozen made already, but on to the Monthly kit from Urban Scrapbook...

This month's kit is Bo Bunny paper. They are one of my favorite paper companies.
We have the lovely rustic tones of the Provence collection here.
Included in the kit is the super cute mini cutlery set from Tim Holtz, some cork paper and the layered chipboard from the same Bo Bunny collection.

This layout shows me and the sweet man dining at Les Halles in New York City.  We are big Anthony Bordain fans, so we happened upon Les Halles after a morning of shopping at Century 21. We had a fabulous late lunch.

I cut the "Bon Appetit" words on my Silhouette and cut bits and pieces from the paper in the kit to embellish the layout. I've also added some Amber, Espresso and Aged Mahogany distress ink to tie all the pictures and papers together,

In the background, I spread transparent texture paste mixed with vintage photo distress glitter over Tim Holtz' clockwork stencil just to give it a little more shine and interest.
See the paper cutlery pieces below? They were from the same cut file as the Bon Appetit words/

thanks for stopping by to check out the layout, be sure to have a look at the other November projects over on the Urban Scrapbook blog           see you soon!
