Autumnal Colours

Good morning.  I hope you are well and enjoying the milder weather; I'm sure it will change pretty soon.

It's time for my DT card at MAWTT.  Zoe is hosting this challenge and her remit is "Autumn/Fall Cards - Anything with an autumnal feel whether it be autumn colours or autumn images".

My Card
 
 
Recipe
6" square base card - cardstock from stash
paper - First Edition "Falling Leaves"
Sentiment - JustRite stamps
Die set - The Works
pearls - The Hobby House
 
 
 I have gone with autumn colours and kept it quite CAS as you can see.  I just loved the paper so much that I didn't want to cover it all up.  There are some beautiful designs in this pad and as you can see parts of this one are pearlescent. The die set is one I bought from The Works.  I have had a few from there and they cut and emboss beautifully and are very reasonably priced - ie cheap!

Please pop over to the blog and see the inspiration from my team mates.

I hope you

Hi Donna, I do hope you pop back to check. I am unable to leave you a message because I am not on Google+. The JustRite stamp set is "Poppies" and there are three lovely sentiments as well as two images. You can find another card of mine using this set hehere.https://christinescardsandcrafts.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/garden-of-friends.html

Hi christine,
what a brilliant card and your paper is gorgeous no wonder you didn't want to cover up too much.
That tamped sentiment is such a very lovely one also.
Great shape die used I had a look recently in their shop but they didn't have that die.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
