Hello Fall!

Hello & Happy Tuesday Everyone!

It's Challenge Day over at Die Cuttin Divas!

The Theme this week is FALL COLORS!!!

-- Here's what I created to inspire you --

I simply LOVE how my card turned out!!! 

You guys know I LOVE FALL...

Even though it's still warm here where I live, It's still

my favorite season - I used my Alcohol Inks to create

the beautiful colored background -

I Die Cut a Birch Tree circle from some Shimmer Copper

colored cardstock (DCWV) 

then used a Stitched Rectangle frame die around it - 

Then I adhered the alcohol Background to the back of the copper paper -

 Then I adhered a piece of Tan Fun Foam to that and 

attached it to a Cream Colored Cardstock base - 

I die cut the word "hello" 3x's in a shimmery

rust colored Cardstock and added it to the one corner - 

Then I die cut a couple of stitched leaves with some of the

alcohol ink fall colored design I made - I attached it below the

birch circle then added a button and made a bow out of some 

Jute twine and adhered it on top!

Cardstock - Recollections, DCWV Shimmer, Yupo

Assorted Ranger Alcohol Inks

Stitched Rectangle Frame Die - My Creative Time

Stitched Leaves Dies - Lawn Fawn

"Hello" Word Die - My Favorite Things (cut out 3x's)
