All I want for Christmas - September Monochrome Challenge

These challenges are definitely getting me going on my layouts for the year! Also, challenging me to go beyond what I normally do. This challenge I will be creating four (4) different LO's. This is the first (1) of the four (4) (on scrapbook.com). The challenge was to create a layout using brick red, and the twist was negative space. Since I had practice with negative space on my last layout that did not seem as challenging as the first time. There is a definite ease when you do a layout technique for the second time. TFL!
