Grateful Friend

Hi there and welcome back!  Fall has turned pretty spectacular here in Western Oregon, which helped inspire the card I'm sharing with you today.  That and the wonderful color challenge at Sunday Stamps and fabulous sketch from Freshly Made Sketches!

Once again I pulled out my current favorite fall stamp set, BB Fall Friends.  I can't get enough of the cute images that are just perfect for fall.  I colored the images with Copic markers then die cut them with companion dies.


The background panel was die cut from retired So Saffron textured card stock, then adhered to a white card base.  On a separate piece of Bristol card stock I ink blended the background for my little scene then die cut with a Stitched Shape Circle framelit.  The primary images and sentiment were adhered then it was popped up on the card base with foam tape.  A couple of leaves evidently floated off the pile behind the girl and her little squirrel, and ended up below the scene. :-)



Thanks for visiting, I really appreciate it!  I hope you'll use the links above and check out both challenges!
