Welcome Autumn!!!!!

 Hello everyone: Every day I pray for you and your families to be well in this very difficult times we're living, please stay healthy, safe and wear your masks.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yesterday was the day that Autumn officially started, I don't know about you guys but this is my favorite season of the year, I know I've said it before but it's true, I just love everything about it, the colors, the crisp days, apple picking with the grandkids, baking apple pies. 

This is a card to welcome this most beautiful time of the year.

I embossed at piece of Kraft card stock with the retired SU "Birch Trees" embossing folder, then I sponged a little "Spiced Marmalade" and "Peeled Paint" distress inks (Tim Holtz). I stamped the leaves from the retired SU "Vintage Leaves" stamp set (2015-2016) with Versamark ink and gold heat embossed them, I sponged more of the distress inks on them, I made a bow with linnen twine.

I stamped the sentiment from an "Our Daily Bread" set called "Autumn Blessings". I think the company has closed down, I couldn't find this set anywhere.

*****************************************************

This is the INSIDE of the card.

Both the sentiment and the acorns are from the Autumn Blessings set.

I'm playing along with the following challenges.

The Card Concept

I think my card is a combination of Fancy and clean and layered.

I was inspired by all the beautiful leaves.

Tuesday Morning Sketches

I turned the sketch on the vertical.

Thank you for stopping by.

Stay healthy, safe and please wear your masks.

Welcome Autumn......

Hello everyone: It's time for another "ANYTHING GOES" challenge over at RETRO RUBBER, which is a favorite since you can create whatever you want keeping in mind that at least one of the stamps you use is OVER A YEAR OLD.

Here's my card that I hope inspires you to play along.

I embossed the green panel with a Tim Holtz "Alterations" EF, the leaves were stamped on watercolor paper with the retired SU set called "Vintage Leaves" (2015-2016) colored with SU re-inkers. The lacy frame is from a Spellbinders die set called "Oval Majesty", I added some enamel dots from Gina Marie Designs. The sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called Feeling Fall, I heat embossed it in gold.

**************************************************************

This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.

The border is from a retired SU set called "Bordering Blooms" (2014-2015)

That beautiful sentiment is from a box of unmounted rubber stamps with no name, I'm so sorry but this is very old and I can't remember where I got it.

I hope you come and play with my teammates and me in the RETRO RUBBER gallery, we can't wait to see what you create.

Please read our rules, they are few but important.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges.
