Sweater Weather Layout and Goody Bags

Happy fall y’all! Cliché, I know. But when you live in the South, it’s just what makes sense!

Suzanna back again, this time as a guest, to share a “Sweater Weather” layout and off the page project with you that I created using the Home+Made collection.

A little more than sweaters in this picture as we’re wearing our winter coats but you get the idea! Fall in England can be brutal with a biting wind that accompanies it. The banner stickers that accompanied this collection were a perfect complement to hand cut banners that span the edge of the layout.

Fussy cut flowers from one of the patterned papers in the bright yellow with the butterfly cut using the die from the accompanying die set create the visual triangle of three that lead your eye around the page, keeping the focus on the picture. Interestingly, and unplanned, the line of black elements also draws your eye from the top, right hand corner of the page down to the bottom, left hand corner.

I couldn’t resist the goody bags that are also a part of this collection! The gold polka dots add a subtle hint of “wow” to me, taking the brown paper sack up a notch! Add a swag of colored goodness and you have great Fall (or Autumn) gift giving décor!
