Autumn Leaves & Pumpkins Please
I love all the beautiful colors of Fall.
As the saying goes, Fall is my favorite color.
They make such a bright and cheery Fall album.
This simple album is the perfect place to add all your apple picking,
leaf peeping, trick-or-treating pictures this Fall.
The “Autumn Leaves & Pumpkins Please” album was made using
Eileen Hull’s Field Notes Journal Die by Sizzix*.
I used paper from Echo Parks “Fall Fever” Collection*.

A few tidbits of information:
- Before I die-cut the mat board, I like to use the Xyron Creative Station* to add adhesive to the back of the paper. It gives the paper a complete layer of adhesive with no bubbles. It really is easy to use.
- The spine of the album comes with three sections. I cut the first section off to make the album thinner. It leaves two holes to add binding.
- I wanted to try something different with how I added the pages to my album. I inserted two mini book rings through the holes to hold my pages.
- The mini book rings are approx. ¾” and with a little maneuvering they fit in the two side holes.
- I used the cut off section to mark where I would need to punch the holes on my pages.
I wanted to make my album vertical instead of horizontal.
I love how versatile the Field Notes Die* is.
I created the word “autumn” using a Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die Cutting Machine*.
I cut it the letters out using StyleTechCraft Gold Chrome Vinyl*.
