A Week of Gratitude: Day 5

Hello friends, Anya here to share a thanksgiving themed layout using the “Autumn” collection. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays and to that theme I would dedicate a whole album! When I think of Thanksgiving, it’s not just the “Turkey” dinner, but also all of those simple occasions when I feel especially thankful for something in particular.

As we were picking out new paint colors for our home, I came across this beautiful fall leaf brochure and was determined to use it on a page because it is a bit of our today. For this layout I chose a green/orange color combination, since it was early fall and some trees turned orange while others were still green. I started the layout with beautiful green paper and by adding a colorful striped paper – Falling Leaves - I was able to pull all of those colors together.

Also, I’ve printed my journaling on velum, for a softer look, which reminds me of early fog during autumn. It also allowed me to hide a few pieces behind it – an ephemera piece from Ephemera pack and cut out leaves from the Colorful Leaves pattern paper I finished the layout with small stickers from the Autumn Sticker Sheet and a few golden glitter enamel dots from the Magical Adventure collection.
