Falling Into Autumn

When I was a kid I longed for summer and a break from school, but as an adult Autumn is my favorite season.  What's not to love?  The air turns crisp and cool.  Fat Fall raindrops are followed by clear blue sunny skies.  Long shadows flow through the trees as their leaves dance in beautiful colors.   There's just not much I don't like about the Fall.   That's why I am excited about this week's challenge at StampNation.   It's all about celebrating the beauty of the season.  Here's a sneak peek at my card for this week.


The embossing on the Thank You sentiment, as well as some of the leaves, is a combination of 2 colors of metallic embossing powders.  In person it is stunning!  I wish I could capture it on my camera for you.

Happy Fall, Y'all ~ SC113

Fall is finally here!   Autumn is my favorite time of year.  I love those cool crisp mornings and evenings, the long shadows in the afternoon and the spectacular show of colors on every leaf.  Yes, Fall is my favorite season and today's card reflect that.


A few weeks ago I showed you my first card using the September sketch at Stampin' Celebration challenge. Clicky to see that card.  I could just do one, so here is another one.

I made a video show how I created both cards.  Check it out below.
