Autumn Colours

Good morning! I would like to extend a huge welcome to my newest followers: Lena, Eva and Shell so honoured to have you follow me!

I am slowly getting back to normal after my holiday in Vegas and looking after my grandsons.  We had a fab time in Vegas - very girly and giggly!  I took only a couple of pics with my phone not sure if there is anything worth putting on here but I will have a look.  The week with my grandsons was perfect so nice to be able to spend time with them and go on days out.  Now I am trying to catch up with everything and I have loads to do!!

Today sees the start of a new challenge at Lexi's Creations with the theme this fortnight being we want to see your Autumn Colours.  Now I must admit Autumn is my least favourite month with everything dying and looking so sad.  Here is my card, I have tried to go with the colours of the leaves from when I used to live in New England:

The image and sentiment are Unity stamps.  I stamped the image on card and then on some acetate.  On the back of the acetate I had used my Alcohol Inks.  I also cut some leaves out of the acetate using the tiny leaves from SB Homespun set.  The little flowers are Knorr Prandell and they have been coloured with Alcohol Inks too.  I cut the tag out with my Sizzix die and edged around the edge with Victorian Velvet DI.  The papers are MME Wild Asparagus and hae been cut with SB Nesties and Grand Nesties.  Ribbon from The Ribbon Girl.

Here is another view:

Please pop over to Lexi's Creations to see what the rest of the fab team have made, you won't be disappointed. Our sponsor for this challenge is My Heart Pieces.

Thank you so much for looking today!  I have such a busy day - food shopping (groan), I have to do my card for The Paper Shelter which is due in tonight I hate being this late and then I am off to catch up with my Aunt!  Thank you so much for looking today!  Take care xx
