Fall Tray: Little Yellow Bicycle

I wanted to post one last Fall project before I get knee deep into the holiday season.  I have this colorful tray on the shelf in our den. It features two of Little Yellow Bicycle’s Fall collections:  Acorn Hollow and Hello Fall.  The two lines work great together.

For this project I used a bare trinket box from Maya Road that included six removable chipboard ATC cards.  You can paint or mist the box, but I left it bare as I liked the warm, raw Kraft hues.

I removed each of the chipboard ATC cards and covered five of them with patterned paper.  I used a photo on the last ATC card.

I stitched a border around each card, except the photo, and added journaling die cuts to four of the cards.  I embellished the cards with pennants, phrases and chipboard, including a trio of owls and trees.  I added a twine bow from Trendy Twine to the bottom tree.

Here’s a close-up of the top of the tray:

This project was featured in the Fall edition of PaperHaus Magazine.  The winter edition will be out December 1 with 12 days of holiday giveaways. You can find out all the details here on the PaperHaus blog.
