The Winner is Scrappy Distractions!

Hello everyone!  Hope the heat isn't getting to be too much for you.

   For this month, we will use the word August for this challenge.  You may use any letter that you wish to choose the manufacturer.
The twist will be a little different this month. You must think of a word that starts with each letter in August and use it on your layout or card.
You must have all 6 items on your layout or card.

NOTE: If you have an alpha you would like me to use, please let me know.

Please list the manufacturer and what you are using for your twist.  We should be able to clearly see the product(s) that you do use for this challenge! I will pick a random winner to receive a $5 ACOT gift certificate.

Must be a new layout/card or altered project.
Limit to TEN entries. PLEASE REMEMBER TO LIMIT YOUR SUBMISSIONS TO TEN ENTRIES TO MAKE IT FAIR TO EVERYONE ELSE. MORE THAN TEN ENTRIES WILL NOT BE COUNTED TOWARD THE PRIZE.
Must post to the gallery by 06/30/26 at midnight and also post to this thread. 
You may combine with one other monthly challenge if allowed by that challenge.

A- arrows
U-Uniquely Creative paper
G- glitter
