Well, it won't be long now until fall arrives. You can feel it in the air every day. There is just that subtle change in the way the sun shines and it is a little bit cooler in the mornings....and a tiny bit darker. And of course, the biggest give away of all, the massive devil tree in my neighbor's parking has been dropping tons of seeds, leaves, and garbage which fill my yard & sidewalk! I don't normally wish for trees to die, but I would sing & dance for days if this one did! I have no trees in my front yard and yet all of the leaves from their tree bury my yard starting about August and go on until October. So today I have a "fall" card to share.
This is another cute digi from Sassy Cheryl. I mounted it on one of my new Joy Craft Square dies and cut some tiny fall leaves with an Impression Obsession die. I used my Martha Stewart score pal to add some raised lines around the edges of the card, but they are a bit hard to see in the photo. Unlike my amazing grandson who just ribboned in 3 of the 5 photos he submitted to the state fair, my photography leaves a lot to be desired! And when I say amazing, I truly mean it! He just completed the requirements for Eagle Scout as well. I don't suppose you can tell that I love him to pieces can you? lol
I was going to work on cards this afternoon, but I think I had better spend some time cleaning up the mess I made with this one first!
Have a great week! Catch you later.

ReplyDeleteLove your fall card and I love the fall - my very favorite time of year!! So you have given me some inspiration to maybe turn to fall in a few projects later. Still working on the colored images I have sitting at my table! I am anal about finishing what I start. So I will just eye ball all your creative fall projects for now;) big hugs
Stunning, cute, and colorful! You make me want to color a fall card! The image is darling and -- WOW -- those dies! I want to shop where you shop. You know, they never have these all in one place and the shipping charges... well, you know. Do you buy them online and, if so, where? Would love to know!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Sherri! Your photo is awesome! Congrats to your grandson too! You be proud grandma! If we aren't, who will be! hehe Die cutting is a little messy, isn't it. I should've taken pictures of what I was walking through the past few weeks! eek! hehe TFS!
ReplyDeleteI love those little leaf die cuts. Great idea doing them out of patterned paper as they really show off the cute image. Congratulations to your grandson - what talent!
ReplyDeleteWonderful design for this cute little guy. One of my favorites, Sherri.
ReplyDeleteSherri, this is gorgeous!! I love your coloring, the die and the leaves all work together so great.
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet and cute. I love fall although I don't get much of it here! The die is one of my favorite-I just got it too!!!lol Your image is darling and colored just perfectly.
