Good morning, this fortnight's challenge at Sweet Stampin' is starting today, the theme is
AUTUMN
To make the focal panel of my card I merged two digital images, the background is Polkadoodles and the busy little girl raking the leaves is by Mo Manning, all coloured with Copic markers, a lot of colouring but very relaxing! The frame around the images is an Aall & Create die matted onto a very old piece of design paper, long lost its packaging so no idea of brand, the sentiment is part of a set of stamps- also no packaging!
Autumn is just around the corner here, the trees still have their leaves and they're still mostly green with some hints of yellow and orange creeping in. Walking in the woods yesterday I could hear the acorns dropping to the ground so it won't be long until the leaves follow, the weather has been so lovely this week that it still feels like summer, a real bonus at this time of year.
There's more inspiration over at Sweet Stampin' - hope you'll be tempted to join in this fortnight.
Thanks for visiting
Chris

Sadly no acorns on either of out Oak's, long since fallen before they matured due to the dry weather. Your Autumnal card is delightful.
