Hello there! Courtney is hosting a challenge over at Practicing Creativity Designs! The prize: a Guest Designer spot for next month's release!!!! All you have to do is create a card using ANY Practicing Creativity Designs (PCD) stamp(s)! Click HERE for all of the details!
Here's what I came up with:
I used two of my favorite PCD stamp sets: "The Whole Cycle" and "Barefoot Summer" to create a festive Autumn scene. I also added that sweet little pumpkin (part of "Pumpkin Patch Border" from DeNami Design).
The aspen leaves are starting to fall from the trees around here, and I love to watch them dance in the wind. Last night my husband and I took a walk around our neighborhood and the leaves were all over the dirt roads, crunching under our feet. That's what inspired the idea for this card.
Here are a couple of close-ups:
I did a lot of paper piecing on this card, which took a bit of time, but I'm happy with the results. I love the texture and color that it adds.
My friend Rosemarie was recently commenting on how much she loves old-style bicycles. We're having dinner together this Saturday, so I think I'll give this card to her with a little gift (maybe some homemade chocolate covered pretzels)!
So...What do you think?
PCD's newest stamp sets release TONIGHT!!! I can't wait! Hurry on over there and check out the DT's creations! You are sure to be inspired!! And don't forget to make a card for the PCD Challenge!
