The blessing of friends
As I made this card this afternoon, I was wearing a sweater and socks -haven't done that for a few months- because it was cool enough that I actually needed them! :) That made me feel very fall-ish, so it was fun to make this fall-ish card. One of my daughters just said, "Now that we're back in school, I'm ready for it to be cold again. I want to wear my sweaters and boots." My sentiments exactly!! :) Sadly, it is supposed to be hot the rest of the week. :/
Here's the card...
My image is FTHS Pumpkin Patch Girl. I colored her with my Spectrum Noir markers. She is cut out using Spellbinders A2 Matting Basics A. The edges are inked with SU "Crushed Curry." The DP is Crate Paper "Farmhouse." The main panel is embossed with Darice "Fall Leaf" EF. A "Buttons Galore and More" button is tied on with natural hemp.

This is really cute, Debbie. I have my image colored but can't find it! It has to be in my craft room somewhere! but it might be easier to color another one rather than try to find it by cleaning off my desk LOL. Love the wood ruler behind the image on your card and the beautiful BG paper.
Hi Debbie!
What a blessing it is to have you share your adorable card in our challenge this week. We could have never made it to our 200th challenge if it were not for faithful participants like you who continue to support us and encourage our efforts. We're so grateful for the art you share, and we thank you for being a part of our challenges.
Blessings,

Beautiful Card, Debbie! The different layers are great and i like the embossed DP. Great coloring also.
Thanks for joining our FREE Stamp of the Month September Challenge and also our Sketch Challenge with a Twist # 118 @ From the Heart Stamps !!
Adorable image and a beautiful card! The patterns and colors work so well together.
This is awesome...Love the DP you used and that cute image and lay-out too. So glad you joined our 200th Challenge at Word Art Wednesday last week. We have a new Challenge today and I hope you join us again. Leaving you with the inspiration of God's Word in Colossians 2:6-8 which says, "So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ." Have a blessed day!
