Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
The leaves are beginning to change, but so far no bright colors around here.
But the leaves are getting bright on my cards!
I used my favorite leaf die to cut from watercolor paper and added re-inker
to wet leaves for brilliant color.
The circle fell out of my Infinity Circle pouch a while ago and it was waiting to
find a place on a card. Freshly Made Sketches took care of that.
Since the circle was cut from the cover of a mixed media tablet (the backside) and
has a bit of texture, I cut some more for the background and top panel.
I used a new leaf stamp to lightly stamp leaves on that layer, tore it on each
end and mounted it over a snippet of brown cardstock.

My Maple tree's leaves are changing quite quickly now, Bonnie! Though they are not quite as lovely as your red one, I do enjoy checking on it every morning!
I am very grateful for you - and love your take on Amy's sketch. Thanks for playing!

No bright colors here either, but seeing your bright, lovely leaves is enough for me! Just wonderful!
Our maple leaves up here are already as brightly red as on your beautiful card. I love all the added texture! Thanks for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
Lovely cards, I adore the leaves and bright colors! Speaking of, that's one thing I miss due to living where I do -- leaves go from green to brown here, not much color locally so a quick ride the mountains around us does take care of that yearning, plus I don't have to rake them!
Your bright leaves ae so pretty. Your background is very creative with the use of the cover of the mixed media table. Love how you lightly stamped the leaves on the center panel and tore the ends to fit over the snippets of brown. A lovely card and perfect take on the sketch.
Beautiful leaves on the circle and the background stamped leafy layer looks great torn at each end and added to a dark brown mat, and a lovely sentiment to finish Bonnie. x
We don't get much color here on the coast, maybe some yellow. One year the weather was just right to turn our maple tree to a brilliant display. That rarely happens. A girl can dream, and I can admire all the beautiful cards such as yours! I like how you made torn edges for the sketch, and the stamped leaves are a nice background for the center panel.
Love your pretty fall card, Perfect leaf dies and love the bright colors. Our colors are supposed to pick early November. Happy day to you!

Oh my, what pretty leaves! I've only seen a touch of color in our area, hoping for more as pretty as these! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Just Us Girls!
It's on my bucket list to see brightly colored fall foliage (I keep missing it in Japan!) so seeing your card is such a treat!
There was a lot more color in mid-Michigan but not so much here in Ohio. Your color is so vibrant and lovely, Bonnie, and the torn edged panel a great design idea. Thanks for sharing your card with us at Just Us Girls.
The leaves are changing only a tiny bit here in West Michigan, but I'm sure loving the brightly colored ones on your card Bonnie! Lovely, lovely card and great take on the sketch...love it!! Hugs. :0)
Beautiful vibrant leaves! I'm heading to eastern Canada on Wednesday to visit my sisters and the leaves should be at their most beautiful while I'm there - the autumn colour is so much better in eastern colour than here in the Pacific Northwest.
What a wonderful card Bonnie - love how you have used the 'splash' behind the cards, and also the pale stamping on the background panel
Blessings

Those bright leaves are so pretty, Bonnie! Not much change here either. I wonder why??!! Definitely a late start to fall. But we can enjoy it on your cards in the meantime. :) xx
You’ve captured the beauty of autumn in these leaves. The colours are so vibrant and gorgeous!
