Hooray for Pumpkins!

Hooray for Pumpkins!

Hello!  Susan here today with one of my very favorite color pallets & lots of fall tones!
The new Happy Harvest paper pad was the perfect starting point of color inspiration for pulling together this layout, with navy and yellow cardstock accenting the fall striped print in the paper pad.  I wanted to tell the story of my toddler talking in the pumpkin patch last fall, and printed a photo that I loved with lots of background 12 inches wide to stretch across the page.  Strips of the striped paper from the paper pad, added to the bottom and top of the photo, add to the design element of covering the page side to side.

I used the "Hooray" die from the new sentiment dies to create the focal embellishment that also doubles as part of my title.  Layered punched and die cut circles underneath add dimension and help highlight the "Hooray" start of my page title.
I used dies from the Star Shaped Shaker Kit to accent both my title, and the little supporting photos at the bottom of the page.
I love to use circle cut photos layered with paper and cardstock because while it adds to the story your page is telling, it also doubles as adding to your page design and an embellishment!
Iridescent bubbles accent my star cuts and add a little subtle bling!  I love the way a few simple elements -- from the fall toned striped paper in the Happy Harvest paper pad, to the "hooray" cut, to shiny bubbles -- can come together and document a favorite memory forever.
