It's FALL! 9-13 to 9-19

Well, it's cooled off a lot in the last week...including a really nice thunderstorm and heavy rains here in the Pacific Northwest. Soon, the leaves will be changing colors and that's my absolute favorite thing... This week's challenge is to make a card with autumn leaves as the focal point. You can use any type of leaves, mine are pressed leaves. (Barry gifted me these wonderful pressed leaves as a challenge prize. Thank you Barry! )

I know Fall doesn't officially start until the 22nd...but Happy Fall!

PS...the paper behind the leaves is a page from an old dictionary...the definition of FALL!

Trudi, I love your card. Fall is my favorite time of year. Can't wait to play.

Great card Trudi and I love that you used the dictionary for background paper. Thank you for hosting!

Oh, Trudi, I love your card! Fall is my favorite season too.

I also am a lover of fall! And I love your card, Trudi. This will be a fun challenge.

Trudi, your card turned out awesome.....I also like the torn page...well done and great challenge for this time of the year.

Lovely card, Trudi. I love that you used the definition of "fall" behind your fall leaves.

Now, it's cooling down to the upper 80s at night, so it is definitely fall. I love it when it cools down to the 70s at night, so it's still cool in the morning on my way to work.

I liked the first one so much I decided to make another.

Elaine - I love the branch with the few leaves still attached! Thank you for participating!

Very elegant CAS cards, Elaine. The branches look so delicate!

I got a set of slider card dies free at the Scrapbook Expo in July. This was my first chance to use one. I love it! Prior to this, I was hand cutting the slots with an exacto knife. This is so much easier.
