Fond of Autumn


 A couple of weeks ago I took out an older fall set called Fond of Autumn.  It has such a beautiful fall sprig image in it and I thought it would make some nice fall cards.  

For this first card, I used designer papers from Gathering Together papers.  I love the pretty gold streaks in the papers.  They just make the cards look so rich and warm.  

I embossed the basic beige cardstock with a leaf embossing folder and then added a strip of the pretty paper to go under the fall leaf images.  I added some gold sprigs and some twine to complete the card.

For my next card, I used the cut out from Grassy Grove set.  It's hard to see in this pic, but I then embossed it with the birch embossing folder to give it a very woodsy look  I added the focal leaf image from Fond of Autumn and a couple of brown, green and gold sprigs.  You could add a little deer or other animal to this card.  I just love how it came out!

My third card has used Basic Beige for the background, embossed with a folder for texture.  Then I cut out the image from an older large die cut.  Ha, ha - I can't remember which one.  I colored in the flower image this time instead of the leaves for a lovely fall bouquet.  

Which card do you like the best?  They each have a different vibe to them.
