Diane chose some pretty Fall colors for this week:
Cajun Craze, Pretty Peacock, and Curry.... and the dessert option is texture!
I am out of the Curry c.s. so I used Daffodil Delight then ink blended some Wild Honey around the edges to make it deeper color like the Curry.
I added some Mossy Meadow for my grass - it's considered a neutral.
I added texture by layering a Leafy Background die in white (watercolor paper) on top of the same wc paper for my focal background. I also watercolored my tree and added some tiny leaves and curled them up on the ends to add more texture.
For my sentiment, I added a pretty teal watercolor Deco Foil transfer sheet on the Cajun Craze c.s.
Thanks for looking! I hope you'll play along this week!

Well, your card is definitely "happy" and it definitely captures "Fall" so you picked the perfect sentiment. I love the added texture and interest you created with the white on white leafy die cut bg. So beautiful And then topped with that very happy, colorful tree. Adorably fun card.

this is a perfect Fall card - I love the embossed background and the colors on the tree. We were leaf watching this weekend and I saw many like this one.
