this is my card for CC860. Jeanne is our hostess and she chose crushed curry, pumpkin pie, balmy blue, early espresso for her color combo. Dessert option is fall.
For my card I used dies from CottageCutz to create a fall card. The background paper is from the Stampin'-Up "follow your art" collection.
I used a pumpkin embossing folder for the center panel. The leaves are sponged with fossilized amber, carved pumpkin and spiced marmalade distress inks. They match the Stampin'-Up shades for this week.
For the watering can, I cut in gray granite (neutral) and added some balmy blue for trim. I sponged the cardstock with the same shade of ink.
Hope you can play along with us this week. We are entering into the Fall season soon and Jeanne has given us a head start with some great fall colors.

Love the card starting with that great bg dsp all the way through to all those delightful die cuts. Each element is a visual treat and I simply adore those fun acorns. The sponging and shading on the leaves add just the right "extra" to make this card really shine. Such a warm and happy thank you. Fabulous card.

Gorgeous Autumn scene! Love how you coordinated everything with the challenge colors. The die-cut elements and papers are beautiful. Love your special touches such as sponging the edges of the leaves. The sentiment is so sweet. Fabulous card!
