As I sit at my desk after a very long weekend on the soccer fields, I could not help but think how it felt like fall was definately coming. West Chester, Ohio is one of those areas that never gets too extreme except for a week here and there but it was still pleasant to hang outside all weekend even if I had to be up at the crack of dawn.  I must say it is a eerie feeling to drive in the dark to a soccer game with the hope the sun comes up in time.  

 I had purchased the DSP, Washington Apple (112461) for another project I was doing and found that I loved the colors for fall.  Plus, who hates to waste strips of paper.  There is always some scrapbook page that can be put together.  The cardstock colors are simple.  There is pumpkin pie (107100) for the base, in color riding hood red (111346) for the accent strip and So Saffron (105118) for the photo mats. 

If you have not purchased our Scallop Edged punch (112091), you don’t know what you are missing.  I am such a junkie for tools and I am even more excited when it is inexpensive and easy to use.

The letters which make up the title, "Fall" are from our wonderful chipboard. These letters are from the On Board Loads of Letters (112084).  I used a sponge dauber (102892) to color the kraft chipboard with close to cocoa craft ink (100549).  If you are unfamiliar with how to do this process, it is so easy.  You basically place your finger into the hole on the top of the sponge dauber, tap the sponge end into the craft ink which is a pigment ink, and tap onto the chipboard.  I know you are thinking why do I need to tell you how to place your finger in the hole, but I have made the mistake of not explaining that process clearly and people where holding the dauber by its side.  Placing your finger inside makes it more comfortable.

We cannot have crampy fingers when we craft.  LOL

I hope you take some time and design some pages to use now or in the future.  If you are interested in anything you see here, feel free to contact me at www.christinewhited.stampinup.net and click on the order now to order or to drop me a note.
