Welcome September!


 Before we know it, the weather will start getting cooler (although we're expecting high 80's this week!).  It's already starting to get darker earlier and the leaves are getting ready to change color.  Yep, fall season is around the corner!


My card was created with products from STAMPlorations.  I began with a wood grain stencil and sponged dark and light brown inks.  The leaves are from the Trendy Leaves set and I added a "shadow" using a medium brown ink on the sold stamps.  The sentiment is from one of my favorite sentiment sets, Fond Expressions 2.

Thanks to these challenges for the inspiration:

  2. The leaves and background play off each other really well. It feels like the leaves have movement.
