Freshly Made Sketches: A Wonderful Day

It's time for a new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches! Today we have a sketch by Narelle.  This is the first sketch from Freshly Made Sketches in September - September being my definition of autumn. I understand the official start of fall is in about three weeks but I grew up in a town with a tourist-based summer economy and when September arrived, the tourists stopped coming and it was fall!!  Plus I'm feeling fall because after record-breaking heat this summer, this past weekend was cooler and a bit rainy. I went to bed Saturday evening with windows open and the attic fan on.  Imagine my surprise when we woke up to 42 degrees outside.  I didn't go full-on autumn with colorful leaves on my card - but it definitely is a fall color scheme.

I blame my teammate Linda Callahan for the sentiment on this card.  When I saw it on her card, I purchased it immediately!!  Actually I thank her because it's a very unique look.  Plus The Ton has sets like this for birthdays, thank yous and Christmas.  I got the general one, but now that I have worked with it and see it on my own card - I'm going back for more!!

I hope to see you playing along with us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
