Paper Sweeties November 2016 Inspiration Challenge

Happy November, crafty friends! It's time for the November Paper Sweeties Inspiration Challenge. Here's the photo for this month's inspiration.

I used several elements from the challenge photo for my design. I started by taking a piece of gray paper and embossing it with lines to resemble the lines of the shutter then added a frame around it. I decided I wanted to add a wreath because there was one in the photo so I used the Hello Spring stamp set and coordinating Sweet Cuts. I stamped the wreath on a green polka dot paper I found in my scrap file then cut it out. I used the big bow from the set to hang the wreath from. Next I stamped and fussy cut a few leaves from the Planner Series Fall Sentiments on maroon and yellow papers and fussy cut them. I added a couple little vines to the wreath before adding the leaves (they came from the September release Thankful stamp set and Sweet Cuts). For my tiny chalkboard I used the stitched rectangle from the Sweet Cuts Window Elements. I cut one in black and one in brown then trimmed the black one at the stitching line before gluing them together. I white heat embossed my sentiment onto the chalkboard. I combined the words from two different stamp sets-Happy came from Planner Series Celebrate and Fall came from Happy Fall Y'all. I hope you'll have the chance to play along with this month's challenge. You can link your projects over on the Paper Sweeties Blog. Thanks for stopping by.
