Golden Days

Hello!  Lin here today. Our fall is quickly changing now and I wanted to make one more autumn card before we get deep into Christmas and winter ones.


I used Karen Baker's beautiful set called Golden Days and stamped the larger leaves using distress inks.  Then I trimmed that panel down and embossed the D'vine swirls right over the top before framing it up and gluing it to my card base.  I made my sentiment from the same set into a banner, and then just added some enamel dots to finish.  

Here's the stamp set I used:  

Golden Days

Enjoy the rest of these golden days and have a great weekend!

The design of this card is beautiful! So simple and elegant and colorful. Trees are changing quickly here too and soon will be without leaves for a long time. I like the embossing along with the swirls in the leaves. Super job!

Loving these leaves, Lin - great way to add texture, too. This captures fall in a big way - and I love that sentiment.

Lin,your lovely fall colors combined with swirls embossed over the leaves is just beautiful. I love how you left the white space ,letting the leaves shine. Even though I live in Houston,Fall is my favorite season.
