Hi fellow scrappers..
I'm here to share my Autumn theme layout that I created as my design team project for Creative Embellishment .. First of all, I grew up in South Florida where we never really got to experience the different seasons, so since we moved to Finland, I am absolutely loving the amazing colors of Autumn.. When September rolls around, my daughter and I spend quality time together by walking through the woods next to our family home and we pick wild mushrooms and yes, we know exactly which ones to pick..
I created a layout of my daughter as she's on the mushroom hunt..
We always have a lot of fun together and once you start making good finds, cause they are sparse, then you get excited and want to keep looking.. Must be an adult thing cause my daughter was telling me how she hated going into the woods for mushrooms when she was younger..LOL
I struggled a little bit finding just the right colors to go with my color scheme.. I decided to stay with browns and oranges, adding the chipboard leaves that I painted orange and yellow using distress oxide ink pads.
The title sentiment makes perfect sense to our day out.. We found so many mushrooms that we had share with friends and family..
I got the ombre look with different colors of distress oxides..
I got such good use out of the Floral lace border piece.. I cut it into several pieces and tucking a few around my photo area, then cutting a strip into two pieces and adding it to the cut away portion at the top of my layout.. then adding orange colored flat back pearl to the centers..
and there's my layout for todays reveal.. I love the look of mixing raw chippies and colored ones..
Thank you for stopping by today and checking out my project..
Till next time..
Hugs

p.s here are the chipboard elements I used to create my project:
