OMGosh! I am late getting to our Sketchy Challenge this month, but have some fun products to share!

I feel the change of seasons in my bones and am already missing lost daylight hours! Thankfully autumn comes with crisp, sunny days that allow us to enjoy the colours of the season. Autumn colour ALWAYS puts a smile on my face!

That being said, I used this month’s sketch to celebrate Autumn! I was really pleased with the end result, though it took some messing around to figure out where it was going! I’m really happy with the products I decided to work with, they complement each other well!

Echo Park Paper Co.’s Celebrate Autumn collection was used for the paper components of my layout! The colours, patterns, and words worked well with my end vision! Some “quiet” color was added to the white CSM Super Stock with the designer stencil and ink,  as part of my cluster for interest.

I used Therm-O-Web‘s  Gold Sequins foil by Gina K. Designs on a  Deco Foil clear toner sheet for the top portion of my layout. I also decided to cut out some leaves to use separately. This detail really made me happy! I have to admit to having a bit of a love affair with Therm-O-Web‘s foil products! The shimmer is so awesome!

Let me zoom in on another layer of awesome! Check out this ribbon! It was customized using the Brother P-touch CUBE PT-P300BT How FUN is that? Change the cartridges with different tapes and ribbons. There are so many fun cartridges available!

The Brother P-touch CUBE PT-P300BT is small, portable and so FUN to use! Download the easy to use app, find your Brother P-touch CUBE PT-P300BT via Bluetooth and design away. You can also use pre-designed art. There are so many fun cartridges to print on, basic colours, patterns or ribbon! I am HOOKED!

Check out this little video to see how easy it was to customize the ribbon for my layout.

Thanks for checking out my layout.
