I have a lot of October birthdays on my calendar.
Orange flowers seem perfect for this time of year.
I did a little bit of stenciling with a stencil
my good friend Loll had sent me.
I stamped the flower 2 times with Tangerine Tango ink
then colored with the Pumpkin Pie Blendabilities.
I cut one flower apart and added to the whole flower with a dimensional.
The flower center was colored with the Daffodil Delight Blendies.
To get a more Fallish look, I used a So Saffron card base.

We've had quite a rainy week, but no strong storms like some have had.
We're thankful for that and that we won't have to water the yard for a while.
Thanks so much for your visit and your encouraging comments.
Enjoy!

Hi Bonnie, such a gorgeous card ... I love the bright autumnal colours and the stencilling - subtle but lovely. I have a giveaway on offer so do check out the sticky post at the top of my blog. Elizabeth x
What an elegant card Bonnie and I love the colours, and the pretty stencilling, flower and foliage look great backed by the stitched rectangle mat. The embossed stitching on the base card gives harmony to the whole thing. Beautifully autumnal. x
So very very pretty and cheery, love that flower and your "stitching"
I love this subtle background and then the burst of colours. So fresh and cheerful. Thanks for joining us at ATCAS and ATSM

This is a beautiful card!! Love the layered flower. Thank you so much for sharing with us at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog!!
Gorgeous card and nicely coloured! Thanks for playing with us at ATSM!
Love that stencil background and the Lil inker shape you've cut it with. The dimensional flower is just wonderful and so very much looking like the pots of mums that we're seeing around our area. Great fall card. TFS & Hugs
I love the hint of harlequin (isn't that what that diamond pattern is called?) in the background. I never saw the appeal of stencils before but now that people are doing little hints of pattern here and there I get it!
What a beautiful birthday card Bonnie! I love that orange flower, so pretty. Makes me wish my birthday was in October! lol Hugs, Brenda
