Thankful for Autumn

I recently made one more card before putting my autumn dies away and it seems just right to share now that cooler weather has been here making me want to get outside and kick up some leaves!  


 These papers were gathered from my stash. I did some ink shading on the edges of the yellow floral, then tore and layered the papers for a country look that mixed well with the plaid. Sponged inks provided the colors on the leaves as well. 

I'm happy to find it fits in with a couple challenges also. I love when that happenes. Thanks for coming by to take a look!

Be yourself

         Have delight in your craft 

               Make something beautiful!  







Playing along with:
Color Hues - where the challenge colors are rust and yellow
Just Us Girls - asks for Leaves on their Die Cut Week
Penny Black Saturday Challenge - I used PB
Dies Fall Foliage and the leafy branch is Dignified; sentiment stamp from Sunflower Harvest Clear set

Wowie, this is beautiful! I love those torn edges and soft shading. The colors, the papers... sigh. I'm feel like I'm just getting started on autumn cards and now I'll have to put them aside for Christmas. Hurry hurry!
