A new paper stack brings with it loads of possibilities in your projects, and we love our newest Autumn Days Paper Stack, full of fall colors and patterns! Today design team member Katarina Prevandarova is showing how she used our newest paper stack in such a creative and colorful way! Let’s take a look!
Hi friends, it’s Katarina here, and today I am sharing a colorful and fun new layout I created using the amazing September kit and add-ons.

Autumn Days 6 x 8.5 Inch Paper Stack, My Heart Stamp
This month I have so many favorite products! One of them is definitely the new Autumn Days 6 x 8.5 Inch Paper Stack. It is full of beautiful colors and patterns and I was immediately inspired by the colorful striped pattern. I first cut the paper into stripes by color and then halved each stripe. Then I used one part in the bottom of the layout and one in the top part. And here comes the fun. I turned the upper stripes to the white side and rolled them to show the color from behind.
I used watercolor to paint all the shades used in the paper stripes to make them stand out a bit more. To each of the rolled papers, I added a matching sticker from the This Is Us Stickers. I backed my photo with a journaling tag from the September Kit that I also used as my title and one of the patterned papers from the Autumn Days Paper Stack.
To connect the upper and lower part of the layout and my photo I used two horizontal stripes of the wood grain paper. I embellished my photo with a bunch of beautiful circle Cozy Chipboard Stickers and a die cut from the September Kit.
Then I went a little fussy cutting crazy. I took the pretty paper from the Autumn Days paper stack with all the leaves, hearts and branches, fussy cut some of them out and added to my layout tone-on-tone, adding foam adhesive to some of them for more dimension.
Now the important question, where do I put my journalling? Cozy Chipboard Stickers to the rescue! They match the colors perfectly, they add dimension and are great for writing and stamping. I used three of them: one for my journaling, one for the date and I used the My Heart Stamp to add “love you” to the last label.
I love how this layout turned out and I had so much fun creating it! I hope I inspired you to have some fun with the September kit and add-ons too! Thanks for stopping by, friends!
