This is my sample for LeAnn's terrific Color Challenge: Bumblebee Shaded Peacock with using a punch or die for the dessert option.
I die-cut a large leaf and embossed with texture; and then layered on plaid DSP and a Shaded Spruce card base. I embellished with a die-cut leaf (Peacock) and an acorn (Bumblebee with sponging at top); and added some dots and a linen thread bow. The sentiment reads: Let our lives be full of both thanks and giving. It was stamped in Shaded Spruce and die-cut into a stitched square.
Fantastic color combo! I look forward to seeing what you do with it. Have fun! TFL

Diane... I almost used the same DSP... I love your design and how you added the BumbleBee panel, it brought it all home for the count! Wonderful job of designing! TFS

The plaid looks like a cozy flannel shirt to cuddle up in on a cold day. Love how you used the large leaf die cut negative for the focal point.

Diane, you've chosen the prettiest plaid to peek through that beautiful maple leaf diecut! Love the addition of the enamel dots! What a meaningful sentiment! Lovely fall card, Diane.
