RRCB242 Grateful Heart

Happy Friday, everyone! The weekend is ahead, and it's a busy one for us, so I'll make this quick!  The Retro Rubber challenge is to make a fall card and since October is Pastor Appreciation month, AND it's almost over, I thought I'd better get to creating something for our pastor!

My pastor likes things PLAIN!!  Which is a challenge when you're a card-maker, as we want to add all kinds of doodads on our cards!  So this card is kind of plain but I did add some colors and patterns that kept to a fall theme:

I used the retired Stitched Leaves dies to cut out this pretty leaf; my papers are from Simple Stories and Authentique.  The sentiment is from Banner Year from 2020.  I used oval punches to punch it out, and I added another wee little maple heart from Itty Bitties, which I've had since 2013!  I actually made another card before this one, changing the orientation of the leaf and adding a woven linen knot, but it didn't look quite right, so I made another one!  What do you think?

The inside sentiment is from Little Delights, from 2021.  I love the font in this one!

Thanks for popping in today! Gotta go make a pumpkin roll!  Enjoy the day and be blessed!
