THE LODGE
by Michelle Hubbartt
Grand Junction, Colorado
Going to Grand Mesa is a family tradition for Michelle Hubbartt, who created this soft and lovely fall scrapbook page. "Every year we go (there) to see the colors change," she writes. "The colors are breath-taking, with reflections usually seen only in professional pictures (calendar pictures come to mind)." For details on how Michelle created her scrapbook page, please see the Sample Instructions.
