Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
I thought I'd take a break from Christmas cards.
I think chrysanthemums are so pretty in the Fall and I have a hard time
choosing between the button mums and daisy mums.
Today I choose the daisy mum and added a bit of burlap ribbon for
a rustic Fall feel.
I recently had a session or two watching video tutorials, die cutting and shaping flowers
using my NBUS dies from Susan's Autumn Flora collection.
I also used them to decorate these Dollar Store pumpkins for my
Craft Group swap. I saved one of the daisy mums for my card.

The fall card is very nice and elegant. White bloom against the brown ribbon makes a great effect. You've decorated Dollar Store pumpkins very nice. It is a nice attention for your friends.
