I Love Fall!

Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the change of weather, the color of the leaves, the big harvest moon and the celebration of family and friends.
I made this card for Susan my up line. She is such a great teacher and I'm so grateful to have her in my life.

The Big Shot

Susan my up-line held a class for her down-line to demo her Big Shot. I think I'm in love with this die cutter. It is so easy to use and the cute projects that you can make. I know what I'm asking Santa for.

Pocket Silhouettes

Today's card was made with Stampin' Up! Pocket Silhouettes set. I stamped the images with White Whisper Craft Ink on Brilliant Blue Card Stock. The center punches are made from Stampin' Up! Curly Label and the top and bottom flowers are Stampin' Up! Trio Flower. The center of the flowers are dotted with a Brilliant Blue Stampin' Write Marker.

Nature Silhouettes going Fall.

I really like this stamp sets. The image is embossed in black, the sky is sponged with More Mustard and Tangerine Tango. I am still not sure that I like the addition of the circles and the flower. I will have to give it another try to see what I can come up with.
