Season of Change


I guess "fall" is officially here however we don't have any leaves falling just yet. They usually start falling in November around here - then I'll probably be more inclined to say "fall" is actually here! This will be one of my cards that I send out at Thanksgiving.

If I'm not mistaken, this is a digi image from Karen's Doodles. So "fallish" looking and pretty. The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes (SU). I actually tried something different with this and colored the pumpkins with my stamp pads and blender pens. I think they came out pretty good anyway. I used the Square Lattice die and an oval nestie, along with some twill ribbon, old button, SU punch, and some twine.

The layout is from Get Sketchy - and this is for their challenge this week.

Thanks for stopping by.................

I love this image, I haven't tried it yet, you colored it so well and just using stamp pads and blender pen, hmmm something else I need to try, thanks for sharing that one. I love how you did the embossing and strip behind it, very fall like. At least here we can sweatshirts, although not this week. It's ok, everyone in CT are complaining how chilly it is and how winter is coming :)

This is a gorgeous scene and you did a fabulous job with the coloring. I like your choices of the lattice embossing and plaid paper to go with the country theme.
