Autumn Wishes

First off, my FIL loved the card I made him for his birthday. I was watching his face as soon as he opened it and he started to chuckle right away, so that's good. He's still laughing about the saying on the inside!

This card was made for my Bunnzy Zoe's Crafts September Guest Designer roll...I am quite happy with the way it turned out.  I used some of the same paper as the other day as I find myself rather short on fall papers...or colors for that matter.  Anyway, I used a sketch that Heather from Hopefully has done and I know it was a couple weeks ago and I can't find it on her blog right now, so that's making me think that it was maybe for Whiff Of Joy or another DT she is on, but none the less, I really liked the sketch and decided to use it anyway.

This sweet little guy picking leaves is from the set called Autumn 1 by Ollyfant and is available at Bunny Zoe's Crafts.  The papers are actually from all over the place, SU, Chatterbox, Bazzil.  I added some fun light brown jute ribbon from Bunny Zoe's Crafts, the leaf buttons and Autumn Terracotta brads are from CTMH and finally the sentiment is from Magnolia.  I did sponge all the edges of all the different layers with Scattered Straw Distress Ink as well.

I am off to be helper Mom at playschool with Landon Wednesday morning and then have a bunch of stuff to get done in town. Lance is out of town all week and Kirsten is going to a friends house after school, so Landon and I are just go to visit with some friends until it's time to pick Kirsten up and then I told the kids we could go out for supper, so they are pretty excited.  

I'll be back on Thursday with some fun news and my DDCC card to share! 

Thanks for stopping by! 

*Autumn Splendor* Bunny Zoes Crafts GD-Sept

I am so very excited to share with you my first GD card for Bunny Zoe's Crafts. I really didn't know where to start after I received my goodies, so Autumn is is.



The image is from the Autumn 1 set from Ollyfant. I thought this little girl is so sweet! I paired it with some paper I won in a blog candy from Lacey, I'm pretty sure its SU paper, but not sure of the name of it. These fabulous buttons are from the Cappucino set and some of them even have glitter in them, very pretty if I say so myself! I also added a touch of Gold Lace Ribbon to finish it off. The sentiment is from CTMH. There is a sweet little boy in this set as well, so I'm sure you'll be seeing him before too long as well.

The watermark on the front is also my handmade by label on the back of my card (I just forgot to take a pict) and they are also available from Bunny Zoe's Crafts...the rubber version that is, from Scrapmagasinet:-)

I decided to color with my Prismacolor pencils which I haven't done in forever, but was pleased with the way it turned out. I added some highlights here and there with some Twinkling H2Os as well.

The sketch is an older one from Heather and I'm not exactly sure if it was for a specific challenge a while ago, but I liked the layout so I decided to use it again.

That's all for me for today! I have a playschool meeting tonight as I am on the board this year, so I will find out when Landon starts and all that good stuff.

Thanks for visiting me today. Now that school is back in I should be back on a more regular basis!

Hugs,
