Fall Harvest

Can you
believe that it is September already? It seems
like just yesterday we were opening Christmas
presents and ringing in the New Year. What I
look forward to the most each fall is the annual
trip to the pumpkin farm. I can’t imagine not
getting out into the crisp autumn air, walking
around the patch looking for the perfect
pumpkins, and topping the trip off with a taffy
apple. Here, some of our subscribers share
their memories of visits to the pumpkin farm.
Who wouldn’t want to take one of these adorable
little pumpkins home?

Editor's note:
I love how the focal photograph just
leaps off the background, which is nearly neutral.
The stitching and torn accent strips on the left of the
focal photo stop the action on that side of the page,
and neatly direct the viewer to the title and second
photo on the right side of the layout.

Editor's note: Even thought
Caroline's page is richly layered with many
patterned papers in orange, burgundy, and
green, the photo pops because the saturation
of the colors is so strong compared to the
more muted tones in her papers and accents. |

Journaling: Un bel apres-midi passe au champs de citrouilles. Tu en as examine plusieurs avant de choisir celle qui deviendrait la notre. Tu voulais la plus belle, pas trop grosse ni trop petite, mais bien ronde et coloree. Tu as finalement trouve et a notre retour nous l avons decore!
Translation:
A nice afternoon spent in the pumpkin patch. You have several times reviews before choosing the one that would become ours. You wanted the most beautiful, not too big or too small, but round and colorful. You've finally found ours, we get back home and we've decorated!

Design note:
This
is actually one of my earlier layouts using
Photoshop Elements 5. I was still learning
what the program could do. One of the things
I find helps me with my layouts is creating
a new layer for each photo, element, brush,
etc. This was it, is easy to recolor, move,
delete, or change my layout without a lot of
extra work. And don't forget to SAVE often!
