One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Fall is in the Air!

Adding some Fall cards to my stash.
This is a sketch from Stamp Nation.
 
PTI paper, Phrase Play # 5 die cut "thankful",
MFT Fall Foliage, Lawn Fawn "So Thankful"
 
I have been wanting to do a layout inspired by Maile Belles and at the same time, do the layered stamping.  I used the MFT Fall Foliage again and inked up each leaf with two different colors.  I love how it gives depth and richness to the images.
 
Thanks for taking a look!

I love those fall colors and you captured them with these cards. Your second card design is "groovy" so to speak. I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself when I saw that groove between the top and bottom. It is a great design and really makes the card pop.

I'm catching up with you, Colleen! These cards are so bright and beautiful! I especially loved your rendition of Maile's work. There is something about that design and you used it expertly!! Hugs, Darnell
