I was having one of those Monday's when I had no mojo and couldn't settle to anything.
I took the dogs out for a walk in the country. It is still beautiful weather here in the UK - one of the warmest October's I can remember - reminds me of warm Houston weather. So we did a bit of Conker gathering and blew the cobwebs off and I came back and did a bit of crafting.
Some of these conkers and the leaf are actually bronze mixed in with real - can you tell which is which?
My card for the Challenge uses two stamp sets and a thinlet. The mistletoe comes from Banners For Christmas - this isn't a set I've seen used an awful lot yet but I love this mistletoe stamp. Here I've turned it right way up to represent a bunch of flowers and stamped it with Versamark and our Gold Embossing Powder. I've used the Celebrate stamp from Here's To Cheers. I used one of the bauble thinlets from Merry Tags to cut out the bauble shape and then stamped inside it with Versamark and embossed with our Gold Embossing Powder.
Thanks for coming to see me - do leave a message or come and visit me at my YouTube channel to see some of my tutorials.
Happy Crafting

It's been a beautiful October, I agree, and your walk looks like great fun - lovely dogs! Your card is gorgeous with that festive red background and eye catching gold embossing. A very stylish design indeed! Thanks so much for joining in with our 300th challenge at Less is More :)
That mistletoe stamp should be used more often Fiona because it is beautiful and it would be a shame to leave it in the cupboard (or wherever it is kept). It looks especially effective in gold against that rich red backdrop. Yummy. It's great to see you playing along with our 300th challenge at Less is More. xx
