IB414 and JUGS848 Grateful

 Hello, peeps! Hope you had a nice weekend! I haven't played with the Inspired By OR the JUGS challenge for a long time, so I decided to throw this card in the ring:

    
A BLUE acorn?  That's a crazy thought, isn't it!  But here's their prompts:



I remembered this fun acorn die from Spellbinders and I searched some of my older papers and came up with a warm print that I thought would fit the bill! I already had a piece of Basic Beige embossed with the Cable Knit embossing folder, so I just cut out the pieces and mounted it all together, adding a little grograin embellishment and some faceted dots along the Iconic Images sentiment.



A sentiment and a couple of additional acorns from Bannert Year went on the inside:



And I actually followed along with the IB sketch as well!  A fun, whimsical card for two fun, whimsical challenges!  Thanks for popping in today!  Enjoy it and be blessed!
