Just Us Girls #748 ~ It's a Wonderful Day

 

Hey there! We have a new word challenge up at Just Us Girls for you. Stephanie has chosen LEAVES, so perfect for this time of year. They're beginning to show some beautiful color here in Northeast Ohio. The leaves on my card aren't your usual fall colors, but they're pretty fun!

I recently picked up this sweet leaf die from Pinkfresh. It seemed to be telling me to reach for some polka dots and gingham. Okay! A pretty little PTI frame was cut from ivory cardstock. The leaves were arranged with an old PTI label die and a sentiment by Carta Bella. I just love those polka dot leaves!

I look forward to seeing how the word LEAVES inspires you. I think there will be lots of pretty cards falling into our gallery!
