Leaves are falling! What a wonderful time for a walk in the woods - or maybe a leaf fight! Hoping we're not the only ones that do that! LOL! We pile up leaves big and chase each other around throwing hand fulls of leaves at each other. I promise.. it's lots of fun!
I made this fall layout for my daughter. She and her boyfriend are both celebrating their birthdays this month. They've been together for a little over a year and I hope they will always remember that the simple things are best.
I normally add enamel dots, buttons or other round shapes to my layouts. I thought it would be fun to make some circle accents with twine. To make these just place an adhesive dot on your project (I used large - not 3D - flat dots). Starting in the center of the dot I wrapped the twine in a spiral. The Solid Maraschino Twine adds a pop of bold color. Because this is my daughter after all I had to add a few gem accents - the girl is addicted to bling. What can I say? Well.. .maybe she gets it from her mom?
All the dies I used on my project are from Top Dog Dies. I cut a label die twice, adhered them together and cut them down to size for my accent. Next I used a hole punch and punched a half circle from each side of the label. I wrapped Solid Natural Twine around the label. I love using this twine because it matches EVERYTHING. .
Here's the finished layout! I hope they look back at it years from now and smile!
