Autumn...

Hello Everyone! We have been having sunshine again in the South and wonderful Fall temperatures! Blessings abound!!

The weather and the falling leaves inspired today's card. I started with a white card stock base and then used the leaf stamps from Simply Chic Autumn stamp set to create the falling leaves. They are colored in layers with Primas. The Autumn sentiment is from the same set. I layered that onto the green card stock piece with dimensionals. The brown rafia bow is centered with a glittered maple leaf brad from Spare Parts.

I was really pleased with the way the colors in the leaves came together. I have always enjoyed coloring and it is even more rewarding now that I have "big girl" pencils!

Hope your Autumn is blessed and beautiful!


Blessings to you,
Vicki
