If you could create a paper line that was fall themed but not overly themed and cliche (pumpkin spice everything, you are the apple of my eye, pick of the patch, ect) what would you make?

My color scheme would be: port wine, rustic pink, burnt orange, golden lime, a rustic yellow, something close to navy, spruce that is more towards the blue side of green, cream, and neutral grey. Maybe some accent colors of a darker teal.
Phrases would be: "new season, new opportunities", "football season is life", "friday night light", "don't jump into a pile of leaves with a wet sucker", "bundled up with the ones I love", "sweet pumpkin pie", "thankful for", "hoodies are life"
Stickers/due cut outs would be: footballs, leaves, apples, pumpkins, family bundled together, cranberries, kids in football gear, sun flowers, trees with various leaf colors

For me, fall is mainly about the colors and leaves, so I don't need much more. I love your color scheme! Accent ideas: A stack of blankets, BOOKS!, soup bowls, pomegranates, thermoses, and mugs/hot beverage takeout cups that don't indicate the contents (no coffee, pumpkin spice latte, etc) or have marshmallows sticking out on top. I like the Anne of Green Gables quote Kelly Purkey included in her recent kit: "I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers". "Another fall, another turned page"--Wallace Stegner "There's nothing as cozy as a piece of candy and book"--Betty MacDonald (Mrs. Piggle Wiggle) "Happiness is a pile of leaves"--Charles Schulz (Peanuts) "My favorite color is October"--unknown "Fall on me."--REM I'm home sick, so I'll be pondering this, as fall is my favorite time of year. . . when the sun shines. Otherwise, it's all wet leaves and clogged gutters, which is where the books come in!  Oh, I display this Stella Marrs postcard for Thanksgiving, even though I provide fresh forks for dessert. I might use the quote without the cat; it's hard to say  |

I love all these ideas. I'd add some words or phrases about winter prep for the garden and the house like raking, extra blankets, stacking firewood. Baking day, soups and stews (love that idea chendra ). Trails, hiking boots, firepit, smores, pies, candy. What's for dinner? And how about some alcohol word Thickers? (changing seasons and holidays bring those special once a year drinks to the menu). Fall wardrobe. Weather words like crisp and clear, cloudy days, stormy weather, breezy, windy, perfect for a rainy day. Maybe a mini stamp set of flourishes that look like a swirling wind? Lots of botanical prints, not just leaves but grasses too. Natural fibers like cotton or raffia, and a few wood embellishments too. Matte black brads that look like wrought iron. I want to make fall pages now |

I really want your collection! This is what I say, over and over. We're far more creative than most of the designers we're offered up on a silver platter who put out collection after collection w/o thought or creativity - just variations on ONE theme (pink girly or pumpkins or....). |

Yes! I’m so tired of the same thing over and over again. We need more options! |

I might use the quote without the cat; it's hard to say Yes, yes, yes to the stack of blankets! We have a ridiculous amount of throws folded up throughout the house. Entire chairs dedicated to holding stacks of blankets. |

Yesterday I sat outside after my dogs went for a mid fall swim at the lake. They were both wet and needed to dry off. Two weeks ago, we got a huge freeze/snowstorm in between 80 degree temps. It killed anything summer. Now our trees still have green leaves, but they are all shriveled. Small branches were broken off from the storm. My youngest pup proceeded to tear through the leaves as she ran through the shoulder high leaves. She's short, so they aren't that high. She ran in circles for a good five minutes and had a ball. My older pup just watched. I need a line of paper to go with everything is dead, but still green in color. Add in the mood and feel and smell of wet dog and you have what I am looking for. I am thinking that I have seen some new designer papers at JoAnn's that actually would go well with the pictures. There was a little pink in a few of the papers, but my pup is part princess, so it could work.   |
