I'm on a roll the last few weeks with richly-colored Thanksgiving cards! Perhaps it's because I spent the end of last week leaf-peeping up in the mountains and am very much in the mood. Thank goodness we took a couple of days off and went up during the week because when we came home on Saturday, I think the entire city of Denver was heading the other way up into the mountains to see the leaves given the miles-long traffic backups. What makes that worse is that Colorado hardly has autumn leaves - just aspen trees tucked into the pines. I don't have any great stories about this trip as I did last week but that's expected. We were in a very touristy part of the state and it was crowded so, although we had a lot of fun, it just a different kind of trip.
With the weekend in mind, I added some colorful fall leaves to my card - along with a big pumpkin. I found some older patterned paper with the colors that I liked and mirrored those in the die cuts. The sentiment is from a set of three by Photo Play. I liked the unique look of it and it fit perfectly into the rectangle on the sketch.
I hope to see you playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches!
