I ❤ FALL


Out of all the seasons....Fall has to be my absolute favorite!! I love the colors of the leaves as they change and fall to the ground. I love the smells of apples, cinnamon, pumpkin, etc. I just love to cook in the fall the most. The weather is perfect for making soups, chili, casseroles, and more! And of course,  I just adore the scarecrows, sunflowers, pumpkins, and everything else that has to do with the season! Yep...I absolutely, without question, ❤ fall most of all!!

So if you haven't figured it out yet, this is my first of I hope many fall cards. I started off with a sunflower of course. I adore sunflowers....I always have. Where I grew up there wasn't very many of them around and I'm not sure why...... but I loved them so much that I always wanted to live in a house surrounded  them when I grew up! I know what you're thinking....does she? Sad to say, but nope I don't. But, I do have many decorative sunflowers on the inside of my home instead and that'll have to do for now.

Today's card was made using the " Splendid Sunflower" stamp and die set from My Favorite Tnings. I used hero arts mid tone shadow inks in butter bar and cup o' joe for the flower. For the leaves and stems I used bamboo leaves memento ink and for the sentiment I used versamark ink and Hero Arts white embossing powder. I then covered the center of to sunflower with Wink of Stella's clear glitter pen as well as parts of the leaves. And last but not least, I added some Lawn Fawn lemonade twine and popped the card up with my 3d adhesives. 

Happy Fall Y'All..... Enjoy :)
