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.
