Swanky Swatches: Beautiful Ordinary Family Life

Hello! I am up on the Paper Issues blog today with a new October challenge!
 It is time to bring out the rich fall colors and this month's
 Swanky Swatches challenge has the perfect set of colors
 to work with on your projects.  I went right for the new Pinkfresh Indigo Hills 2 collection!



Here's the swatch to base your October design off of:
You can see I was inspired by the top three on the paint swatch and the bottom gray tone. 
Another fall paper grouping that would be perfect is Pink Paislee's Auburn Lane!


The Pinkfresh Indigo Hills 2 Eminence paper was the lavender/light blue wash paper used to cut the Paper Issues free circle blooms cut file out of to begin my layers above the wreath design background paper from Pinkfresh.


Next, I stitched on the Paper Issues free  Leaves & Laurels cut file out of golden patterned paper and more Eminence Pinkfresh paper. Check out those sweet coordinating Pinkfresh mini alpha stickers!  They are puffy, cute, and perfect for the little title words or details you want to document!


The Pinkfresh ephemera pack and puffy stickers had several leaves that were perfect for tucking in along the stitched border to create more texture and depth. Add a sprinkling of Pinkfresh Indigo Hills 2 enamel dots and it's complete-- instant fall wreath for your autumn photos! Love that this paper already had paint splatters and inked lines for an amazing base to build up my wreath design.
