This month's challenge is entitled Fall Fancy:
The air is crisp and the colors are warm – celebrate fall with a spook-tacular creation or a thoughtful thank you using Fall as your inspiration!
If you have come here from Laurie's blog, you are right on track. If you just happened upon the Hop, you can check the hop list below to get caught up.
I always enjoy making fall themed cards as it is my favorite colour pallet to work with. I immediately thought of Bountiful Harvest as it has such a wonderful mix of pumpkin images! I opted for the pumpkin trio and tried my best to colour them with my Twinkling H2Os. Good thing pumpkins are forgiving LOL! Added some hemp twine around the horizontal strip for some texture and promptly forgot to add my thank you tab. Its been that kind of week...
Need a little inspiration? Check out the blogs linked below to see what the other Divas did with the challenge! It's sure to be a treat, and speaking of treats, we've got a prize for one lucky commenter along the hop! Check out the Verve Blog today for all the prize info and deadlines!
Time to head on over to Jen's blog to see her wonderful take on the inspiration photo! Happy Hopping :)

Very cute card. Love your color scheme.
Your papers are perfect for the pumpkin images, and that pop of color of the red button is great. I like how you wrapped the piece of kraft with jute and added the little black banner to pull the layered frames together. Lots to love here! Thanks for the inspiration!

This is adorable! (With or without the missing tag!!) Love how you used the twine.
Well it's an awesome card even without the sentiment. I dought anyone would have noticed if you hadn't said anything. It can go inside. I love all the texture.

Cute card! Love the fun little pumpkins! The twine wrapped around the strip looks great! Wonderful added texture!
I can see the shimmer on your pumpkins Marisa. It makes them glow. Now wrapping twine around that strip was pure creativity at it's best. Altogether fabulous card, with or without the the sentiment. x
Lovely card. Love that ripple effect on the ribbon.

Lovely fall card and the added twine wrapped around the bottom cardstock it so cute!
How quickly I've fallen behind in sharing my adoration for your lovely cards! Guess I need to address that immediately! Your pumpkins, sporting their twinkling shimmer, are pure delight! Fall-beauty indeed...
