I love, love, LOVE autumn colors. (Have I said that dozens of times before?) I had decided to play along with the sketch at
My Favorite Things and while digging through my stash of uninked stamps, I saw this charming
Sunflower Girl. I was actually making this card yesterday morning and it was unusually gray out and a little rainy. With all of that, my need for rich fall colors went into high gear!
I had also just purchased the MFT Western Borders set so I ignored the pretty scalloped border and added some barnwood!
Also adding to Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes challenge.
If you are in the U.S., I hope you are having a happy and relaxed Labor Day!

Fall and winter are my favourites!!!
So I can relate to you. :-)
