For my
easy
layout, I gathered my favourite photos and created a blocked collage using a digital template. I
framed the left and right sides of the collage with chocolate brown scalloped strips to help separate and de-
fine my photos, then repeated two additional scalloped strips along the top and bottom edge of the collage
in different colours. A punch of vibrant patterned leaves extend beyond the brown scallops to reinforce the
fall theme, and a mixed media title, strip journaling, and a few sticker embellishments round out the page.
As the fall season settles in, one of my family’s favourite activities is to visit the pumpkin patch at one of
our local farms. Life is hectic and we don’t make the excursion every year, but when we do, it is a fun, fam-
ily outing! While my girls were on the hunt for a perfect orange globe to call their own (with a little help
from dad!), I went in search of the perfect photo. I love this photo of my husband and girls, and all of the
pictures remind me of how much fun we had on this wonderful family day!
