Fall is Here


 Fall is "almost" here according to the calendar but right now it's very hot outside so summer will be around a little bit longer.
I've had this stamped image in my stash for quite some time, and finally pulled it out and colored it with Copics. I used a strip of fall designer paper on the side and embossed a panel of autumn-colored cardstock with a Darice fall leaves embossing folder for the main panel. The sentiment was heat-embossed with white on dark brown cardstock and I added 3 SU! embellishments to the bottom in autumn colors to finish this.


I'll enter this into


Thanks for stopping by and I hope you're staying cool on this day!

Cute - and pretty - card! That's really a cute image and you've colored it so pretty. Love the embossed background and of course the pumpkin patterned paper too! We really will get a touch of fall next week if all the predictions are good.

How cute Newton's Nook kitty peeking out from the pumpkins! The blue bird has to be careful! :D Beautiful colouring and great take of the sketch, love the embossed panel with the three card candi!
It's hot again also here, but it's usual enough at this time of the year. We usually have an autumnal weather at the end of October/first days of November. Time to have the pumpkins ripened! Mine are still little and green.
Stay cool and take care, dear friend! Hugs, love and positive thoughts from my little scrap of the world!!

A cute image, great card. We are having a heatwave at the moment - too hot to do much.

OMGoodness, that image is just the sweetest, Carol! Your coloring is spot on and I love the embossed leaf panel!! What a pretty Fall card! We can only hope this heat will soon leave us as I can say I am honestly ready for Fall. We had some wicked thunderstorms yesterday afternoon/evening and calling for much of the same for the next few days. Definitely need the rain though! Stay cool & crafty, my friend! Hugs~

What a cute fall card Carol! I am really loving that embossing folder! That strip of pumpkin paper is perfect with your image and embossing. Such a cute image too! A great take on the sketch and I love it! Here's to hoping that more seasonable temps and low humidity come soon. Hugs, Brenda
