Sunshine and Good Times - Two Page Fall Scrapbook Layout

Hello! I have another fun fall layout to share with you today. We took our grandkids to the local sunflower field. We picked some flowers and took some fun photos together. 

Aren't they the cutest? We had such a great time enjoying the massive field of sunflowers.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. Have a lovely weekend!

 

Hello Sunshine - Two Page Fall Scrapbook Layout

 Two posts in a row this week! Trying to make up for lost time.

Here's a fun two pager from our trip to the Sunflower farm a few years back. I love the paper and the colors for this set. My favorite thing about the layout is the photos of my precious family. So many sweet memories come flooding back.

We have not been back to the sunflower patch. Some how we've missed the timing of the blooms. 

The kids (and Grandma!!) had so much fun picking out sunflowers with beautiful blooms to take home.

Even though most of you probably already have your Christmas decor up, I hope you are enjoying the last few weeks of fall! It's my favorite!

Pumpkin Patch - Two Pager Fall Scrapbook Layout

 Hello! It's been awhile. 

I have so many fall layouts to share, and now winter is at our doorstep. But maybe some of you are working on your fall layouts? Here's a little inspiration, either way. 

One of our traditions that we've managed to keep up with is taking the grands to the apple orchard and the pumpkin patch. 

I'm not sure how it's been 3 years since this particular pumpkin event, but WOW! Once again, time proves to be faster than the blink of an eye. 

First...ugh, I wish I had beautiful hand writing. I spend most of my day on a computer now, so I really don't get much practice with writing anymore. Currently, I use my Cricut for most of my journaling because it's just more fun and the results are much more legible.

The pics look a little weird in the photos of these layouts. I'm not sure why, but they don't look like that for real. Anyway, I love the argyle style paper for these fall pics. Hope the layout inspires you in some way.

Have a beautiful week!

Apples - Two page scrapbook layout

 We love the tradition of picking apples together. Lately, it's just been hard to get our crew together for various reason. Of course, I love to document the family fun!

This apple picking party was a from a few years back. Honestly, we haven't all been able to do it again since then. Life can be complicated and hard sometimes.

I love the vintage, distressed paper! Maybe because I'm vintage, and also distressed. 😜 As much as I love working with a pack of matching designer paper, I feel accomplished when I can go through my stash and find coordinating scraps that will work together in a layout. That's what I did here. I'm pretty happy with the results.

Apparently, I was having so much fun putting the layout together that I completely forgot to add the date. Ugh! I believe it was Fall of 2020.

I cut the title with my Cricut and added checkered red washi tape vertically to give it some pop. The red and white baker's twine adds texture. I created this way before I started doing most of my journaling with my Cricut, so you'll all have to suffer through my handwriting. 

Hope you are enjoying this season. What's not to love, except today it is a little rainy and dreary! Time to break out all the pumpkin and apple recipes, a pot of chili, and sit by the fire. 

Fresh - Two Page Fall Scrapbook Layout

 Here we go with another fall layout. This one featuring pictures from a farm market that we went to with siblings during one of our getaway weekends. Most of these pictures are from the Farmer's Market in Flint, Michigan. We enjoyed looking at everything they had to offer. Fun stuff!!

I love the fall paper with the hint of blue! The "fresh" cutout was perfect for the theme, but didn't show up quite as I hoped it would on the patterned paper. I guess I could have backed with cardstock, but I chose to roll with it. Look at all of those beautiful home grown veggies, and the flowers! 

I didn't add much to the right side. All of the flowers, banners, etc. were part of the woodgrain patterned paper and worked with the theme of the layout. The donuts were homemade pumpkin spice Keto donuts by yours truly. Everybody really liked them.

More layouts from this weekend to come. I miss my hubby's siblings so much. It's been a rough couple months for many of us and we just need a weekend-long group hug. I'm so thankful for each of them in my life. Do we always get along perfectly? No...but for the most part, it is a time of joy and so much laughter!! We are blessed to have each other.

Apple Festival - Two Page Scrapbook Layout

 Fall is my favorite, as I'm sure I've mentioned before.🍎🍁🍂 Today, I'm sharing another fall layout from a few years back. This one is featuring pictures from the Kendallville Apple Festival. It was a beautiful day and I have such great memories from being together as a family. 

I am such a sucker for woodgrain paper. Most of the embellishments I used are from a fall stack of paper, including some stickers. I cut the title and swirl with my Cricut. Typically, I'm not a big fan of stickers, but they do make for a quick page that coordinates easily.

I loved the banner on one of the extra paper scraps, so I just cut it out the best I could and slapped it up in the corner. I'm still not sure that I'm a big fan of how it turned out. I added a few word banners which were also from the same fall paper pack.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. Hope you have a productive and happy weekend. 

Harvest Blessings - Two Page Fall Scrapbook Layout

 As promised, here's a second layout from our 2019 trip to the apple orchard. These pics are featuring our silly selfies.

I love our time with the grandchildren. It can be crazy and hectic, but it's the fun we have together that makes the memories. Love matting the pics on the light blue paper.

I cut the pumpkin on my Cricut and popped it over the denim washi tape that I placed horizontally across the pages.

This pic above...It pretty much tells our story. I love our silly times together so much!

Thanks for stopping by my blog again today. Keep coming back. I'm writing a bunch of posts tonight  while I am here at my desk. Hope you are enjoying and maybe getting some autumn inspiration.

Apple of My Eye - Two Page Fall Scrapbook Layout

 Fall is my favorite!!! Apples, gourds, pumpkins and everything else. Today I'd like to share a layout from a few years back featuring pictures with our grands from one of our favorite orchards.

Do you put titles on your page? I almost always do. It's another way for me to be creative with my page and make it all my own.

I used some numbered washi to line the edges, and multiple scraps of matching fall themed patterned paper. I do love to mix and match. I only had one sheet of the apple paper, or I may have used that all the way across. Leaving a space between the strips was a new thing for me, but I think I like the effect and also leaving a border all the way around and between, if that makes sense.

I matted the photos in black so they wouldn't get lost on the page. This really helped them to stand out, and also tied in the black printed washi tape. Same idea for the black and white baker's twine around one of the photos.

An apple-picking page just wouldn't be complete without layering up some apples!! Using my StampinUp! scalloped punch, I punched around one of the apples on the patterned paper, then matted it again with the 2" circle punch, then popped it all up on the page using dimensionals. 

The orchard and pumpkin picking is one of our fall traditions with the grands. Love them so much! I can't believe this layout is already two years old!! They are growing up so fast! 😢

Hope you enjoy this layout. I have a few more layouts to share for fall as well as a few Halloween layouts. I better get cracking and start posting more often. Have a great week!!
