First of all I'm sorry about the poor quailty of the pictures...the lighting in my house at night is not great and I was using my phone to take these pictures. I added information about the products that I used in each layout and almost everything we have at our crops.
Of course I took lots of pictures on Sarah's first day of pre-school and I was very excited to use these October afternoon collections. The plaid stamp at the bottom is a Unity Stamp Co, the Apple is a die cut using the Cricut "Give a Hoot" cartridge, and the
Hello My Name Is stamp is a Close to my Heart Stamp from "Good Work" stamp set. Apple stem is Papertrey Ink paper as well as the green paper the picture is mounted on. Papertrey Ink "Simply Chartreuse" is a great matching green to use with a lot of the October Afternoon lines. The base paper is Colonial White from Close to my Heart. All other Paper and embellishments are October Afternoon Report Card, Schoolhouse, and Campfire.
My base page is the yellow w/polka dots by October Afternoon Farm Fresh Collection Farmhouse Paper. Next I layered with October Afternoon Report Card Bus Route paper. Striped Ribbon is Pumpkin from Stampin Up. All pictures are mounted on Papertrey Ink paper. The Little Things stamp is Ippity by Unity Stamp Co. The tree is a die cut using Cricut Give a Hoot cartridge. Tree trunk paper is Crunching Leaves by October Afternoon Weathervane Collection . Top of the tree is Simply Chartreuse by Papertrey Ink. The branch with leaves and birds in a nest is a stamp from Love you Forever Stamp set by Close to my Heart. I stamped it several times on different papers and cut out the individual pieces and put them all together to get the look. It wasn't difficult but a little time consuming, and might I add Worth it!
