I Love Fall
Have you seen this video on Kathy's blog? As soon as I did, I knew I had to case her card! I went straight to Starbucks and got a pumpkin spice latte ( I have to admit, I like the old recipe better), and drank it on my way home so I could create this card.
I used an older MFT stamp called Happy Harvest for the image and a Lawn Fawn sentiment from Into the Woods. I actually made this card a while ago, but never posted it. I haven't sent it yet, either. I can't seem to let it go.
Have a great day!

Happy Birthday Card
Happy Sunday!
Finally a chill in the air. Love it!
Here is a card I made for a good friend.
I used the SSS Hello, Friend stamp set that I absolutely fell in love with when I saw it on a blog. I am having SO much fun coloring the doodley flowers! I used my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers in deep, November colors. I've been using Bristol paper and having lots of success blending and water coloring!!
I added the Lawn Fawn happy birthday sentiment and the cute, little Lawn Fawn skunk, because, well, sometimes birthdays at our age just stink!
Lame, I know.
I'm entering this in the Lawnscaping Thinking of You challenge.
Have a great day!

Welcome, Autumn!
Happy Saturday!
Our weather lately has been absolutely wonderful; beautiful blue skies, vibrant fall colors, and unseasonably warm temperatures for the last few weeks! I am thoroughly enjoying it. I know as a card maker I should be starting Christmas cards and projects, but I hate to rush the season. I've been making a lot of "wreathe" cards, using a circle as a focal point and stamping images around them. I've also been doing a lot of coloring!
Here is a card for the Paper Smooches challenge for November using the PS set Autumn Groves stamp set and Prismacolor pencils. I used the leaf and acorn stamps, coloring the outline stamps with pencils and gold embossing the solid leaf image (the challenge is to use gold on your card).
I brushed clear Wink of Stella over a few of the leaves and the pumpkin top and added some sequins for a bit more shine. The card base is die cut and popped up for more dimension.
Stop by the PS blog to see the other entries. I am always so inspired!
