It's Fall Y'all
Hi Everybody. It's Mindi here with you today. I am happy to be sharing some pocket pages with you today, using the Pumpkin Spice collection. Every year around here Fall seems to be delayed. I makes it really nice to be able to work with some Fall related products to tide me over until the real Fall shows up.
A few weekends ago we drove up the canyon to a small town that was holding an Apple Festival. While we were wandering around I happened to spot a tree that was changing it's colors !! Boy was I excited to see some beautiful fall colors.

Speaking of fall leaves. I used the woodgrain tag underneath my embellishments here. It was the perfect backdrop for adding a little something extra on top of my photo.

This is my title card. I really wanted to add in some of the great patterned paper from this collection somewhere. The title card was the perfect choice. I added the tree on top of the paper and added the week number and some embellishments on top.

Here is a look at the left side of my spread.

One thing I like to add into my pocket page spreads are "Highlights" journaling cards. Especially with weeks like this where I wanted to include a lot of photos from the weekend. Which, by the way, I am totally ok with. I printed out my journaling onto some white cardstock and cut it down to fit onto the yellow 3x4 card. I added a strip of paper to the top to add some color and then put some more embellishments on the top.

One more closer look from the first page. Over the weekend the girls and I attended a girls only Witches party. Don't be to afraid to customize your pages by cutting up some of the stickers, cards, bits and pieces. I cut up part of the chipboard flower sticker to use one of the smaller flowers on my journaling card.

The second page of my spread included more of our adventure at the Apple Festival.

There is nothing more beautiful than Fall colors. Am I right ?!!

This is a fun filler card that I made for this week. On the bottom I made triangles out of patterned paper. Matching them up to make a fun pattern on the bottom. I added the chipboard frame on the top with the bird tucked right in.

Back to the apples now. How could I not take home a souvenir from the Apple Festival.
Isn't this apple journaling card the best. The word phrase stickers are perfect to add a little something extra to your photos of journaling cards. I stacked a few to the side of my journaling card.

I knew I had to use this clear photo overlay somehow. I decided to put it on the bottom of my journaling card. They sure are versatile. I added the word Autumn to the top and then put my journaling about our day in the middle.

That does it for me today. Go out there and enjoy all that Fall has to offer!
