Hello everyone! Amber here from the Sew Ink Blog! I'm back with my last Fall themed layout using this colorful collection from Close To My Heart called Pathfinding. You can check out my first three layouts featuring this collection HERE, HERE, & HERE. I started by using one of the 12 x 12 sheets of patterned paper as my background. Then I added some patterned paper, my four photo mats, a few chipboard pieces, a stamped sentiment, a journaling tag, and my title.

I spelled out "Oh-So Grateful" with some barn red alphabet stickers from DCWV for my title and then added some stitching across my letters. Adding stitching helps keep the letters in place insuring they won't fall off as time goes by. The little Lagoon journaling tag can be pulled out from behind the patterned paper so I can add some journaling later on.

 I hope you enjoyed my colorful Fall themed layout today. I had so much fun creating all kinds of different layouts with this fabulous collection. Next month I will be creating all of my layouts with Close To My Hearts Yuletide Carol Paper Pack & Yuletide Carol Complements. Thanks for visiting!

Hey All!!

Amber here from the Sew-Ink Blog!!! 

 Today I have another Fall themed layout to share that I created with Close To My Hearts Pathfinding Paper Pack and Close To My Hearts Pathfinding Complements Chipboard Sheet. I also used a fun little pattern from Close To My Hearts Reflections How- To Program called Bottom Border- Title. There are three different patterns to choose from, I'm using the second alternate pattern with the 4" x 3" photo and the three 2 1/2" x  2 1/2" photos.

I focused on using a few different sheets of patterned paper, some coordinating cardstock, and minimal chipboard pieces. I followed along with the pattern and added my green corrugated "Fall 2014" title and a few chipboard pieces to the bottom strip of patterned paper.

Of course I had to add some blue stitching and a bit of stamping for a little bit of subtle color, I added a terracotta colored leaf from the Pathfinding Complements to the stitching as well. I hope you like and Thanks for visiting!

Supplies: CTMH Cardstock- Chocolate, Bamboo, Glacier / CTMH Paper Pack- Pathfinding / CTMH Chipboard- Pathfinding Complements / CTMH Clear Stamp Set- D1569 Babycakes Scrapbooking Workshop  / CTMH Ink Pad- Chocolate / Jillibean Soup Corrugated Alphabet- Green / Sulky Thread- Blue / Sewing Machine

Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing a colorful Fall themed layout that I created with Close To My Hearts gorgeous Pathfinding Collection. I will be creating and sharing a few different layouts featuring this collection all month long here on my blog and over at Jessica's. Today I'm sharing the first layout I created with this super cute collection.

Before I even started my layout I knew I wanted to highlight some of the gorgeous colors that are in the patterned paper so I started by painting and misting my 12 x 12 sheet of Champagne cardstock with some Autumn Terracotta and Lagoon ink mixed with water. I just love how the Autumn Terracotta and Lagoon color combo turned out. Since this is a Fall themed layout I used a picture of a tree with the sun setting behind it, a few chipboard pieces from the Pathfinding Complements Chipboard Sheet ans some Twine to my photo.

I hope you enjoyed my colorful Fall themed layout today. I will be back next Wednesday with another 12 x 12 layout featuring this super cute collection. Thanks for visiting! 

 Supplies: CTMH Cardstock- Champagne & Chocolate / CTMH Paper Pack- Pathfinding / CTMH Chipboard- Pathfinding Complements / CTMH Re-Inkers- Autumn Terracotta & Lagoon / Lawn Fawn Twine / Staple Gun
