Here's what I made:

Of course I had to do something Fall/Thanksgiving themed for my project! I used the Classic Editions Paper Collection along with a doily, burlap and an orange paper (Chatterbox) from my stash. The pictures were taken in Gainesville, GA when my husband and I visited my uncle and his family back in 2011 during Fall. We actually scheduled our visit during this time of the year because I had never experienced Fall and I was dying to see the gorgeous Autumn leaves!

I used the large Dahlia from the Blooming Dahlia PreCut Set. I stamped it twice and fuzzy cut it. For the center, I used the Sun Kissed Fleur PreCut Set. The yellow flowers I made using the Tattered Blossoms PreCut Set and Brown Gala Glitz for the center.

I distressed the background and used layers of different textures to add dimensiona nd interest to this Fall layout.

I used different foliage stamps to create variety. I inked and distressed them for added interest.

I used  Prima bling swirl with a little bird on it that I thought went perfectly with my layout!
