Hello, and welcome to my blog. I am so happy to be here once again as September Guest Designer at Just Us Girls. I am loving this gig! This week's challenge #697 is a Mood Board, which I love.
Here's a close up of the Mood Board so you can see all the wonderful details.
For my card, I zeroed in on the hand holding the leaf (check the merlot nails), and then lots of beautiful Autumn color that is present in each of the photos on the board... and then, there's the pie! I combined some things old and new from my stash. It was one of those projects that looks simple, but took forever to get right. In the end, I am pleased with the way it turned out.
Please hop on over to the Just Us Girls Challenge Blog to see what the lovely and talented Design Team has created to inspire you. Light a cinnamon, apple or pumpkin scented candle, and let your imagination take you to warm, cozy and creative places. Hope to see you in the gallery!
