fall fun

This is an 8x8 layout I made for Spellbinders using the Presto Punch™ Machine. I used my all-time favorite photos of the little man on this. It was his first time out in the fall leaves. He was eight months old. We had gorgeous sugar maple trees filling our backyard at our first home and they filled it with red gorgeousness.

I punched out squares of patterned paper using P3-002 Square Punch Templates. Then I punched P5-001 Fall Leaves from each one. Keeping the paper in the punch template, I embossed the leaves. (everything is foam mounted to add lots of dimension)

The letters were also punch from brown cardstock using, PT-F02 Plain Jane Lower Case alphabet.

I am pretty excited about this project because it was re-created on Scrapbook Soup, the PBS show all about paper crafting!! Check your local listings for the show!

 

Gratitudes:

Nov 16 For lunch dates. When his schedule allows, I pick my hubby up for a lunch date. We try a new-to-us restaurant and get to chat without a 5 year old interjecting. Its really nice. Really, really nice.

Nov 17 For will power. Its been nine days since I have had a soda or caffeine. Its been tough, but I am determined to give them both up once and for all!

Nov 18 For Friday! :) We all look forward to the weekend to sleep in, enjoy breakfasts together, and just hang out. Enjoy your weekend!

 

thanks for stopping by!
