simon says stamp monday challenge: autumn is in the air

newchallenge

This week the them for the challenge over at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog is Autumn is in the Air. To me, Autumn is all about the fall colors, cozy sweaters and my favorite holiday…Thanksgiving! I think this time of year is a great time to reflect on all kinds of things we are thankful for, and I took out the new 8 x 8 Dylusions creative journal and made a page with some of my favorite fall colors.

I didn't use the Dina Wakley paint colors directly out of the tubes, but instead used the Paint Mixing Chart from the Ranger Ink website to mix some colors of my own for a more fall palette. I don't tend to journal a lot on my pages, but it's something I'm working on. You can see that I did take a moment to jot down a few things I am thankful for on the paper bag layer behind the cut out plants:

    What a wonderfully simple message on a gorgeous background! I really like how you incorporated so many different techniques and patterns and shapes. I especially love the way you combined those whimsical trees with sophisticated stenciling. I also liked how the “Be Thankful” sentiment is in such a cute child-like font because it’s one of those messages that we can learn from children who are happy over the simplest things. Really lovely work here!
