wishing you a happy birthday

Well the Tuesday Trigger over on Moxie Fab got me thinking. The colours definitely have an autumn hue to them and after the thunder storm we had last night I thought I'd follow the changing season and embrace autumn in all its stormy glory.



I used the fabulous sketch, SSD#41, by Ashley Cannon Newell for Skipping Stones Design. Also I used the wing part of Stampin Ups two step bird punch to create my leaves, which ties in nicely with the latest challenge to use punches by the wonderful ladies over at A Passion For Papertrey.

Supplies:

Card - PTI vintage cream, kraft
Stamps - PTI wishing you
Paper - Crate paper cottage collection, Echo Park sweet summertime, Bo Bunny flutter butter, My Minds Eye alphabet soup & so sophie
SU! two step bird punch
PTI scallop die
American Crafts ribbon

    I just love the stitched "stem" and the leaves punched from patterned papers. This is so clean and lovely!

    This is awesome, and a wonderful interpretation of the Tuesday Trigger! I've been sitting here looking at the "inspiration" photo, completely uninspired, but you've done beautifully!
