Using some stash and more stash!

I'm totally diggin' the October Studio Calico kit.
I've used every bit of pattern paper and most of the embellishments.
 Now if I can only use the remaining stash.
Of which I have a lot of.
 I decided to dominate this page with green
as Q has beautiful red hair and it just works with this paper.
I found some "word" paper to mat the photo with
to bring in black to pull the page together.
 Because the color black is cool that way.
I tossed bits of black to bring your eye around the page.

I did use bits and pieces from the stash baskets 
that I have way too many of.
Mostly to keep the mfg's separate and indentifiable.
Studio Calico, Shimelle, and thickers.
So now that I've used my October SC kit, I have a lot of 
Shimelle, Echo Park and Graphic 45 waiting for some photos.

I have also found I love using bits and pieces.
I also found I don't care if the colors really match
because it all seems to come together in the final version.
AND I seriously have issues with titles -
 on pages, on blogs, on subject lines. 
Which is beyond annoying.

I don't know how I missed the Woodn't you know its fall at Paper Issues.
Thanks Lisa!!!

Everything works together beautifully, Lynn. The color scheme is wonderful too! You should link this up to Woodn't You Know, It's Fall at Paper Issues because it has wood veneer on it and fall leaves. :) If you link up and link back, you're eligible for a goodie bag from Pinkfresh Studio (fun, fun embellishments). :) Just sayin'. http://paperissues.blogspot.com/2014/10/new-issue-woodnt-you-know-its-fall-with.html
