To create this layout you will need:

Take a look at the whole It’s Fall, Y’all collection in the video below!

Step 1: Use Rich Brown Solid Cardstock as the base for the layout.

Step 2: Using the 12-inch Trimmer, slightly trim the olive green ledge tonal paper. Adhere to the cardstock base.

Step 3: Cut three various pieces of paper to measure 1-1/2″ x 1-1/2″. Cut in half from corner to corner to create two triangles of each hue. Layer the triangles on top of each other in the upper-left corner of the layout.

Step 4: To create the acorn: 

  • With the second-smallest Custom Cutting System Oval Pattern and the Blue Blade, cut an oval on the outside edge with marigold diamonds designer paper.
  • With the second-smallest Custom Cutting System Oval Pattern and the Red Blade, cut an oval on the outside edge with burgundy leaves tonal paper.
  • Slightly overlap that same oval pattern along the bottom, cutting again using the Red Blade. Use the piece that you cut away and trim for the stem of the acorn.
  • Use the 2-Way Corner Rounder to round the pointed pieces.
  • Using scissors, cut a small triangle from the marigold diamonds paper. Adhere behind the bottom of the acorn for the point.

Step 5: Cut and adhere a small journal mat next to the acorn. Journal as desired.

Step 6: Mat a 4″ x 6″ photo on a large marigold mat.

Step 7: Cut two pieces from the navy leaves tonal paper to measure 4″ x 4″. Mat two 3-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ photos. Adhere to the layout.

Step 8: Adhere stickers and embellishments to the layout using Foam Squares on some for added dimension.

  1. It seems my entire back deck is covered with acorns in the fall! I could probably do an entire layout about that! Thanks for the inspiration!

  2. This layout is super cute! Looking forward to teaching this to my customers and using this layout for my fall photos.
