I Think I'm In Love with Weathervane

Weathervane is one of October Afternoon's soon-to-be-released collections and is perfect for fall and Thanksgiving layouts, cards, and projects. The colors are gorgeous - deep brick red, rich orange, pale aqua, dark aqua, golden yellow, cream, leaf green, and pale and chocolate browns. Mmmm....I look at these papers and want it to be fall already! I got my hands on all six of the papers and the stickers and can't wait for the rubber charms, chipboard, alphas, die-cuts, rub-ons, and stamps. (If you want to see the whole collection, go here.)

Here's a card using images hand-cut from my favorite paper in the line, "Cozy Home," paired with a page from October Afternoon's Label Journal mini-album and American Crafts vinyl and chipboard Thickers:


And here's a layout using two of the patterned papers and the stickers, paired with a grid paper from October Afternoon's Detours collection and American Crafts chipboard Thickers and leaf shapes:


I shall leave you now to return to thinking about crisp fall air, hot chocolate, and changing leaves. :)
