Sorry I've been a no show host this week! I ended up working on two big grants this week. One still has about 20 hours of work left and it's due Monday at 3. So... have not had a minute to do anything!
Just realized I haven't stopped by. And I'm glad I did.
Terrie, I love those delicate leaves. And the bit of ink along the corners add a nice rustic touch.
Trudi, you might not have made any cards, but what a neat assortment of envelopes. I love them!
Barry, I want to snuggle up on that comfy chair, cuddle that kitten and read to my hearts desire. Ahhh... heaven!

My upstate NY roots are showing. Love me some apple picking (and pumpkin picking and grape festivals).

I made the mistake of trying to shade on colored paper with alcohol markers. I spent way too much time putting the truck together to remake so it's going to stay the way it is but if anyone has a recommendation on how to make it look better, I'm all ears.

Elaine - If you do anything, I'd just add more shading with the same pens...it looks like the old truck out in the orchard near my grandfather's old house!

Elaine, those are great cards. Try adding a bit of colored pencil to the shading.

My favorite thing about fall is family get togethers and hugs.

Very cute card Golda. Reminds me of the honey bear squeeze bottles!

Thanks for the ideas on the truck ladies. I think I'll try some colored pencils. Or maybe I can add some rust splotches with a sponge.
