Happy fall, sweet friends! Well, at least it's fall up north, but we are keeping a close watch on Hurricane Matthew and are prepared. I really enjoyed coloring up this new fall digital image, and I love the wooden wheelbarrow. And would you believe there is a Turks cap or turban squash? That's the green one on top. What a haul, eh? Allison Cope used this designer paper for one of her cards, and I fell in love with it and bought some for myself. It's a perfect color pallet and, I also am participating in this week's Color Challenge, which is a wonderful array of fall colors. I so love playing challenges when I can - yay!
After coloring my image, I die cut it and put it in my MISTI to add a sentiment from a clear stamp set. Just seemed to fit for my card. Then I cut the DP, added it to my card base, and added my focal image. Simple layout and very mail friendly.
Thank you so much for taking a closer look, and I hope you have a wonderful rest of the week! Praying for all those affected by the hurricane and hoping we are fine. Big hugs, sweet friends!

Ditto what everyone else said sis. This is so beautiful, I could sit and look at your work all day long. It would be a dream come true to sit by your side and watch you work magic with Copics. The tartan dp looks fabulous too. Stay safe!! xxx

Really a treasure, Cheryl. Your exquisite(and signature) coloring really brings the image such a feeling of depth. I hope Hurricane Matthew decided to pass right by you without doing any harm to person or property.

Love the background and the way you have matched the design paper. Beautifully coloured as always too. Wonderful old wooden wheelbarrow. A great country style card.
