cas-ual fridays 71



Today at CAS-ual Fridays we are asking you to celebrate the first day of Autumn with us and make a Fall inspired project :) Our sponsor this week is Great Impressions Stamps who are offering a $25 Gift Certificate.


Autumn for me is all about rich colours and I wanted to capture some depth of colour in my card by using various colours of card stock. With this in mind I cut a broad strip of brown, a medium strip of coral and a thinner strip of yellow card and white embossed an image over the top. I thought a thank you sentiment was also suitably autumnal :)




Here's links for the rest of the crew for more inspiration:

Michele Gross - The Boss 
Christina MacLaren 
Dana Seymour 
Debby Hughes - that's me! 
Gayatri Murani 
Jenny Mullens 
Julie Day 
Karolyn Loncon 
Kimberley Lane

Lorena Canto 
Lynn Mangan 

Piali Biswas

Not forgetting the facebook team who will be posting to facebook and their blogs during the week:

Deb Wabbe 
Lisa Addesa 
Stephanie Washburn 
Suzanne Dahlberg 


I'm also going to pop this card over to the 
Hero Arts September challenge gallery for their Fall Feast theme.

Supplies: Stamps - Hero Arts delicate blossoms, thank you messages; Inks - Versamark, Versacolor pinecone; Card - Stampin' Up early espresso, calypso coral, summer starfruit; white embossing powder
