Reveal Day for The Front Porch Kit "It's Fall Y'all"

Wow, it's been a while since I've blogged - lots of new and exciting things happened in my life this past year, but now back to normalcy - finally!! - and I got to create with the exciting new Front Porch Kit by The Little Blue House!! It's called "It's Fall Y'all" and that's the perfect description of all the fun goodies you get in this kit - perfect for Fall memories!
 
 
My first project features a photo of my granddaughter wearing her new New Orleans Saints hat - getting ready for the football season!
I hand cut the large letters of my title using the football print paper
 
My next layout features my granddaughter and me together - I watch her everyday while her parents are at work so I have lots of selfies of us together!! That's us enjoying the cool fall weather out in the park!
I  layered several of my leftover cards and scraps, using the colors instead of the patterns to dictate which pieces I used. Grey, pink, yellow and blue were my color choices so I chose all of those pieces and layered them. I chose blue and grey because that was the color of our clothes, I chose a touch of pink because it was in the blanket we were laying on and popped a little in the photo. Then I chose yellow since it's across from blue on the color wheel and it's a contrasting color to help make my photo and title really stand out on my page.
 
Next is a two page layout of my granddaughter's birthday party. She turned one in August, and even though it's not fall, the colors of her camp themed party matched the colors of this kit perfectly!
I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut some camp themed pieces - the tent, trees, and arrows. I painted the chipboard banner pieces from the kit with crackle paint, then layered the cute letter stickers from the kit on top of them! They were the perfect mimic of the actual banner I made for her party which you can see in one of the photos!
 
A feature piece in the kit is the wooden plaque, and I couldn't resist painting gold and then using my Silhouette to cut out a saying for my favorite football team to keep on my TV stand during football season!!
I cut all the pieces from the black cardstock (except the words "Game Day" which comes precut in the kit), then highlighted some of the pieces with  gold Stickles. I edged the entire piece using black Stickles.
 
For my last project I made some gift tags - one of my favorite things to make!
I used the precut title that came in the kit on this tag
And for this tag, I inked, ripped, and sewed the cloth piece from the kit to make this ruffled tag with flower
