Hello everyone. Welcome to my blog.
Today I'm participating in a (new to me) challenge blog:
FOUR SEASONS - for their ANYTHING GOES - FALL challenge.
They include an mood board for you to use for inspiration:
Fall is one of my two favorite seasons (spring being the other one).
For my card I wanted to used warm colors and fall leaves. Plus I couldn't resist using my squirrel stamp again!
Here is the card that I created for the challenge:
I started with a card base: Basic Black
Next I added a layer of Pumpkin Pie along with 2 patterns of designer paper (Carta Bella - Welcome Autumn series) Those leaves are just so pretty on that paper.
Next I stamped my sentiment (which took me forever to locate in my stamp drawers) - With Memento Tuxedo Ink - The sentiment is one I've had forever and is from, Hero Arts.
I cut a circle of More Mustard*retired SU card stock and added 3 small gold colored gems.
I stamped my squirrel (Nuts About Squirrels - SU) with Memento Tuxedo black ink, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry and Crumb Cake inks and fussy cut it out. I mounted the squirrel over the circle with foam tape.
Hope you have enjoyed your visit & have a great day.
That's really cute. That squirrel is simply adorable.
