Hello and welcome! It's time for a new challenge at Just Us Girls. It's also a new month and that brings with is a new Guest Designer. I'm very happy to have a dear blogging friend of mine joining us for the month of October. Please give a big warm welcome to the talented Greta Hess!
When Bobby picked the word LEAVES for us, I knew just the leaves I would use. This Pinkfresh set became a favorite the first time I used it last year. Cutting them from polka dot paper makes them even better! I popped two sprays onto a layered pair of SB label dies. I've had those dies for an eternity. Isn't the embossed edge nifty? My sentiment (MFT) was heat embossed on vellum. A couple of glue dots was all it needed and they're hidden with gold confetti pieces from PPP. Easy peasy!
Your turn now.
What kind of leaves will you let fall into our gallery?
Very sweet, Lisa! Yes, I do adore those pretty polka dotted leaves. Your colors are perfectly autumn.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty mix of elements for the season, Lisa!
ReplyDeleteYour card is so very sweet, Lisa! The polka dot leaves are so pretty.
ReplyDeletePretty card. Love the vellum sentiment too
ReplyDeleteCAS and oh so pretty Lisa! You know you had me with the polka dots leaves...they are just too sweet! I have those same label dies somewhere and should take a look for them as I'd forgotten all about the "nifty edges" you mentioned! Perfect sentiment for this card too! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteYour pretty card is definitely ushering us into fall -- the leaves are awesome, and the colors warm the soul!
ReplyDeleteI just went out to check - nope, no polka dotty leaves on our trees! Makes me love yours even more! I love your main SB label dies more every time you use them!

ReplyDeleteThis looks fabulous, Lisa, and I love the polka dot leaves! I still have so many of my oldest SB dies. You can't go wrong with a classic!
ReplyDeleteLove how you used an older Spellbinder frame die here Lisa. Great DP and those leaves so 'right'. Lovely sentiment and nice use of gems
ReplyDeleteThe label dies are a wonderful place to show off your sweet polka dotted leaves, Lisa. I love the gold embossed sentiment too.
