On the day I write this, we're experiencing hotter than normal temps where I live. It was 90 degrees (F) today, and will be the next two days. Sure doesn't feel like a real Autumn yet! It is in my mind, just not outside my door. :D
Here's a real Fall-like card to share, using new-to-me My Favorite Things stamps: Thankful Leaves. I trimmed them by hand, those leaves, since I do not own a Silhouette machine. Ahh, someday.
The Houndstooth background stamp is by the now-closed Market Street Stamps. I miss them and their awesome background designs!
How's the weather where you live?

Hello Colleen!! Your card is super elegant! Love the contrasting leaves on the pale BG...
ReplyDeleteHere in India it's supposed to be monsoon but it's hotter than it is same as it was in summer! :(
Hot and humid here in FLA AND rainy every day! LOVE the leaves and BG! Grateful I saw this FAB card, Colleen!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous!! I loveeeeeeeeee those leaves!!!! Stay cool!!
ReplyDeleteLovely card !! The banner with sentiment looks very trendy !
ReplyDeleteLove this, Colleen! We had those 90's, but a nice rain came through yesterday and we woke up to 58 this morning.....aaaaaaah! Hopefully fall is really here this time!
ReplyDeleteHappy dancing with those gorgeous leaves front and center :) Love the sentiment panel too.
ReplyDeleteThis is sweet and simple Colleen, perfect too I might add! We had those hot temps just before you. A cool down is on it's way...59 here today!
ReplyDeleteLovely fall card, Colleen! Autumn is definitely here - has been raining for days already!
ReplyDeleteI don't own a Silhoutte either nor do I have room for another machine even though I hear it does amazing things! I love love your pretty fall leaves! Yes it was in the 90's here too, but I love it! :-)))
ReplyDeleteLots of great fussy cutting on the lovely leaves! Such a pretty fall card, Colleen! It was hot here the other day, but now it's chilly! I do welcome the cooler temps! Have a great weekend, hugs!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful fall card. We are having rain here in Idaho. I am loving it..
ReplyDeleteHope you are enjoying your weekend.
Hugs~
Beautiful card, Colleen! It's hot in L.A. Looking forward to cooler days.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty fall card! Those colors look great against the herringbone!
ReplyDeleteYour leaves are so perfectly trimmed they appear to be die cut. Love how the sentiment fits in the banner die, and your soft sponging of the banner, the angled placement in the lower corner, the houndstooth, color choices -- all come together beautifully!
ReplyDeleteOooo that is so pretty. I love that hounds-tooth background. It makes me think of walks in the forest wrapped in warm cozy sweaters, socks, and boots. This definitely puts me in the mood for fall. Just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBear Hugs,
Carol
