Connie Can Crop- DT: Grapevine Layout

Dear scrappers, 
This is my post for Connie Can Crop.  I made this layout for a fall break trip we took 3 years ago (speaking of procrastinating...):

My supplies:

closer look at the left side:

To the right side:

some closeups:

I used this paper from BoBunny because it accents the pumpkins in the pictures, I took in our fall trip to Grapevine, TX 3 years ago. I made this layout during my trip to Boston, I'm so behind my scrapbooking LOL...

I made this layout at the inside courtyard of the Boston Central Library:

The weather was fabulous and believe me the looks I received for crafting in public were amazingly funny, you know, she must be crazy kind of looks... But i had fun and met my deadline at Connie's blog.

BTW, I used some cabochons from Connie's Crafty Cart:
