Autumn Spice

Good Morning. Wow, was the wind and rain blowing last night? It sure was at my house. It was so nice to be snuggly and warm in my bed, though. Hope you enjoyed the sunshine this morning? Our featured card for today was created by Lori Staley, a demonstrator friend of mine. I think she created an easy, but gorgeous card. Hope you enjoy it! The technique she used on the leaf was stamped in More Mustard ink and then she used a markers to color in certain spots. It adds color to the leaf and makes it look quite natural!

Set: Day of Gratitude
Cardstock: Cajun Craze, Very Vanilla, Early Espresso, and Autumn Spice Specialty Paper
(great way to use scraps)
Ink: More Mustard, Early Espresso, and Markers (Cajun Craze and Old Olive)
Accessories: Ticket Corner Punch and Dimensionals

Shoot me an e-mail or leave me a comment so that I know you are checking in on my blog this week and I will enter your name in my drawing. The drawing will take place tomorrow. The winner will receive ... a sampler of the Autumn Spice Specialty Paper.
