Autumn Journal Class - pumpkin prompt pages & next prompt

Hi!

The next prompt in the class is 'Pumpkin'. Again how you use this as the base for your page is totally up to you. It could be in the photos you use, the subject or the bits and pieces you pick out to use.
I went with pumpkin carving photos and here's one of my pumpkins this year. I went with some really cute diddy ones, (weirdly I got more pumpkin out of these little ones that the bigger ones, more on that in later pages and how I spent four hours on Sunday cooking with Pumpkin!).

Here's my page following along with the prompt 'Pumpkin'.

The left side was dictated by the four pocket page protector used on the previous page so I picked out some cards to use again and fixed those to the back of the cards in the pockets already. The top right pocket is paper from the main kit cut down to size and the wooden star from the main kit is glued on top of the page protector and stamped with a date stamp.

 

 

For the opposite page I added my photos to two 4x6 pockets on the page protector. The top photo was printed to size, (4x6) and the lower photo was a square so I added some extra patterned paper down the sides.

I had a paper scrap to use from the page before it so I cut it in half and used two strips of it down the sides to make it up to the 6x4 size. I used this same blue dotty pattern paper to keep the flow of the pages going.

 

That's what the back looks like with the strips glued down the sides of the photo.

Next I added the alpha stickers over the top of the page protector as in the previous page. To line them up I used the card backing from the alpha pack lined up with the edge of the page protector to make a straight edge. To get the spacing right I put down the first and last letters to begin with then filled the rest in the middle.

Same with the smaller alpha stickers.

As a final touch I added some of the Pinkfresh puffy stickers around this side and the other to help tie them both together.

That's it - page done!

I'll leave you with the next page prompt and it's....

Spooky Stuff

So what are you thinking? Halloween costumes, maybe something you're afraid of, something that's creeped you out lately or anything else you can think of! I'll be back in a couple of days to share what I put together for this next prompt.
