Happy Fall!! Yep, it is officially here! So I thought I would do a sort of changing of the guards post here today on my blog! This first summery card uses Our Daily Bread Designs new Thinking of you set. The buttons are made out of paper (for TLC239) ...yep 5 layers of paper under the DP layer, and then covered with crystal effects! How fun is that!!
From summer to Fall...this second card is ushering the Fall!! I created this card for today's color
challenge on SCS CC237 - Rich Razzleberry, Basic Black, Crushed Curry...such wonderful fall colors! I also used this week's Midnight Madness sketch - MMSC20. I used the Our Daily Bread Designs new Friendship set. LOVE this new BasicGrey paper!! The colors are just perfect with some of the new SU! in colors!!
