It's the most wonderful time of the year.....

I absolutely love fall weather and today in western PA, we are having one beautiful, delightful day! So, I stepped back from Christmas stuff I have been working on to make a fall card.

Wanna see?

go-jus, huh?

I used the exclusive two tags die for the main panel. I stamped the image from Wandering Words in the Holiday Mini Catalog. Who couldn't put those stamps to great use??? I inked it up with close to cocoa and inked the leaves with stampin write markers in tempting turquoise, more mustard and dusty durango. I then sponged the edges with close to cocoa and chocolate chip. The designer series paper is from the Holiday Mini also, it is Autumn Meadows, which in my opinion is the most beautiful fall paper Stampin Up has ever had. It is just gorgeous!!! The card base is tempting turquoise that I sponged with close to cocoa. The leaves are cut with the big shot and the leaves #2 die. I then textured them up with texture plates #4 and perfect details texture plate through my big shot. They were sponged and curled up.

Here is a close look at the leaves:

Now, I don't want you to misunderstand just how much dimension is on this card....

So...what do you think?? Leave me some love with your first thoughts of this baby.

Well....off to pick up the little one from school and keep her away from the hubby which has been home all week sick. I had him to the ER and sure enough he has flu and walking pneumonia....argh!!! I just hope my little one does not get it!
