Hello again, peeps! A second post for me today! Well, last week was my lucky week! I had this card chosen as a winner for the CASology 61 challenge, as well as this one as an honorary mention for the ART 14 challenge and this one for the Kraft Journal Make it Monday challenge! I am so blessed! So the lovely designers at CASology asked me to be the guest designer today! And here is the cue:
Who doesn’t love autumn? I think it is just about my favorite season…I am so drawn to the natural hues, and decorating for the season is one of my favorite pasttimes! So I had a hard time narrowing down which autumnal image to use---I have SO many! But I love this twig wreath from PTI, so I went with it:
I stamped it on Very Vanilla in Chocolate Chip, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry and Pumpkin Pie. I didn’t have any twine dark enough to match my wreath, so I just “dyed” some SU linen thread with a brown Copic marker! Perfect match! To hide the thread on the inside, I matted my card on an Early Espresso card base and added this to the inside:
I hope you’ll pop over to the CASology blog and show us your CAS autumn cards too! Toodles!
