autumn wishes

 Hello!  Hope all is well with you.  Popping in with my first autumn themed card.  I will be posting this one to the Paper Players, as well as the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge.   I haven't played along with Paper Players in ages.  Their current challenge was just the one to get me back.  


I recently purchased the beautiful Fond of Autumn bundle from Stampin Up!  There is a main image that can be cut as one piece or you can use a second die to cut it out in pieces.  I used the second die.  There is a image with flowers on it that I was going to use for another challenge, but didn't get the card done in time.   I used the three other pieces for this card.  I did simple watercoloring with Jane Davenport watercolors.  The backdrop for my cluster of images is also from Stampin Up!  In August they were having their Sale-A-Bration promotion so I was able to get a pack of papers that have gold and silver foiled on them.  I used a piece with gold foil.  I stamped the sentiment using VersaFine CLAIR Acorn ink, trimmed it out and popped it up on the piece.  I finished with the twine bow.


Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely day!

What a beautiful card, Rosemary! This image is such a lovely fall image, and I love how you have colored it. The gold foil is the perfect backdrop for it. Thank you for playing with The Paper Players this week!

Rosemary, you showcased this set beautifully. I love the texture your background paper gives, but it doesn't detract at all from the beauty of the focal image. Gorgeous card. So glad you joined us at the Paper Players this week - and welcome back!
