Love To Scrap Challenge Blog; Fall Back

October 1st! Can you believe we are now entering the holiday season? It’s nuts! The challenge theme this month on the Love To Scrap Challenge Blog (LTSCB) is Fall Back.

I decided to work in my Junk Journal and created this two page spread:

The sheet below is a copy of a mop up sheet that I had made years ago. I like to take photos of colorful pieces that I make and make copies of them to use on future projects. I have a container of these originals and copies. I stamped the leaves/pumpkins/acorns directly on the sheet and fussy cut them out.

Originally, I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with the cut pieces so I decided to flip through my Junk Journal. I saw these pages and felt it would be a great backdrop for them. The spread started like this:

I used a glue stick to adhere the leaves/pumpkins/acorns around the page. I stamped the leaves around the two page spread to fill in some spots. I also stamped and embellished the sentiment using a gold Wink of Stella pen. I used the pen to add swishes around the circles too. Hey, a little bit of sparkle always looks good!

I used a white & black pen to add some marks on the circles. I also gathered an orange, green, and two shades of brown ink pads to add color here and there. I found these brushes at my local Dollar Tree and they worked great! They only had these small sizes so I may need to purchase larger brushes elsewhere.
