Gorgeous Leaves in Fall Colors

Okay, I’m not ready for Pumpkin Spice, but that’s only because I don’t care for it. But for Heaven’s sake, can we chill out down here, Lord?
Lots of fun making this one after waking up with an idea … Too soon?

Years ago Stampin’ Up! had Strawberry Slush and I was IN LOVE! Still am! This year Strawberry Slush is an InColor, which means it will only be around for 2 years. I bought everything they have in that color, from cardstock to alcohol markers. Strawberry all the things! The white panel is not quite 4-1/4″…

When my husband’s niece got married, she and her husband came to our table at their Wedding Reception. It was mostly a chance for us to be introduced (finally) to her US Marine husband, but also to talk to me about how each of my cards to them had been scrapbooked over the past year….

My husband’s great-aunt had beautiful iris gardens, and I am fortunate enough to have a piece of that legacy. Auntie Flo’s iris tubers traveled from Oklahoma to Houston where my MIL, Charlsie McLaughlin Cawthon grew them in her garden. How she kept them safe from the little Boston terriers she raised, I will never know….

Basic White and pastels are my favorite colors, so this Fall Note Card makes me happy! Not traditional, and I didn’t even use a sentiment on the outside of the card!

Clean and Simple, Stamps-Ink-Paper, One Layer Card ….. these all are ways to use Beautiful Friendship to create stunning cards quickly and easily. The hydrangea in this set of stamps is an often missed image but don’t skip it! The etching of the rubber, called distINKtive, makes it possible to use one ink, one stamp,…
Good morning! No, not too soon – I love fall and am ready for fall weather, decorating, and “nesting”.
It’s a beautiful card, as always. Hope all is well.
Thank you Madge! Couldn’t be better here, all the way round. Hope you are well, too!
