Falling for Handmade Paper Blog Hop!

Welcome to my stop on the Falling for Handmade Paper blog hop! Today we have a dozen talented bloggers sharing projects featuring handmade paper paired with Club Scrap's Falling Leaves collection.

Club Scrap Falling Leaves Kit:  Beige textured 12x12 Paper, brown paper with metallic leaves, Leaf stamps, Brown ribbon with gold edges, solid brown cardstock,
Palette inks: Landscape, Haystack, Moulin Rouge, red mini-brad, a real Maine oak leaf, computer, adhesives and cutting tools.
Instructions:
1. Create a 12x12 document on your PC for the title, print directly onto background paper.  
2. Cut 4" x 12" piece of the brown paper with metallic leaves, adhere to the bottom of the background paper.
3. Use a dry adhesive like tape runner to adhere the ribbon where the two papers meet, wrap edges around the back.
4. Mat the photo on brown cardstock (the sheets that come in the Club Scrap Kit are the perfect size to mat a 4x6" photo!) Attach the photo with adhesive on 3 sides only, to create a pocket for the journaling tag.

8. Use liquid glue to adhere the leaf.
