BEAUTIFUL AUTUMN

I love Autumn - it's my favourite time of year and I fall in love with it every time it comes round.  The challenge over at Global Design Project #GDP159 this week is very similar - Fall in Love - 




My card was inspired by one of Michelle Zindorf's cards using Beautiful You and I used the trees from the new Winter Woods set. I used one of the stamps from Timeless Textures to add the leaves at the bottom.  The sentiment is from another retired set Yay You.




I used a mixture of some old and current SU inks for the leaves - Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, More Mustard and Really Rust.  I used a leaf from the retired set Apple of my Eye and some versamark ink to create the background on the backing paper.

I'm also adding this into the following challenges - 

Sunday Stamps - Colour Challenge - Fall
The Paper Players - Trees and Leaves
Allsorts Challenge - Trees and Leaves
SU Only Challenge #SUOC209 - Holiday Catalogue - I've used Winter Woods

Fiona... I absolutely love how you extended the use of this stamp into the fall. Your stamping and coloring are perfect and elicit just the right feel! Thanks so much for joining us at The Paper Players this week!

What a melancholy and moody scene you've created. I like the background stamping on the card base that extends the mood beyond the centre panel. Thank you for joining us at The Paper Players.
