Happy September my crafty
friends!! This is Leslie from http://scrapnlifeaway.blogspot.com/
!! It’s
hard to believe that it is already September, although the temperature outside
does not reflect it!! Today is my day to share a creation with you! Thank you so much Sheila for giving me the
opportunity to share on your great blog!!
The layout that I am sharing
today is kind of a sneak peak! I am
teaching a class in October at a retreat that will raise money for breast
cancer! I will be teaching 2 double page
layouts, which have a fall theme, and this is one of the double page
layouts!! I had some pictures from my
grandaughter’s first Halloween (she’s 2 now) and they were just perfect for
this!!
The paper is
from the Farmhouse fall collection. The
pumpkins and vines are from the Happily Ever After cart. The leaves are from A Child’s Year cart. The metal Hope embellishment is from Tim
Holtz. The twine and doiley are from my
ever growing stash!!
All the
paper strips have been distressed and chalked to provide that distressed
feel. The pumpkins have been stamped
with a texture stamp I borrowed. The leaves
have been sprayed with olive vine glimmer mist and then chalked with a Mango
Mai Tai powder puff.
And, what’s
a layout without a few tags! I just had
to add a tag with some cornstalks, the stamp is from CTMH Abundance Holiday
collection and of course it has been sprayed and distressed! The journaling was cut at ¾ in. from the
Plantin cart using the roly poly feature, and then I outlined the letters (just
in random spots on the letters) with an orange colored pencil! The smaller tags were also sprayed with olive
vine and then stamped with the same stamp that I used on the pumpkins! Then the finishing touch, I lightly painted
all the pumpkins, leaves, small tags and letters with crackle accents!!
I hope that
you enjoy this layout and that it inspires you to create a beautiful fall
layout of your own!! Have a great day
everybody!!
