I've had Fall on the brain for the past week, so I pulled out an old favorite: Quilted: Autumn.
I used the tiniest acorn in the set with Fine Linen ink to create my background...what did I do before the MISTI was invented???
I used a piece of kraft cardstock for my top layer and die cut a circle out to show my tiny acorn background, and then attached a piece of kraft striped DSP to the bottom third of my card. Next I had fun stamping the colorful leaves, acorns, and greenery and then arranging them around the circle. Some twine and a few iridescent sequins finished off my "thank you" card (Penned Elegance).

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
Gorgeous fall colours and great stamps and die cuts. The cute repeat stamping on the background looks wonderful and yey to the Misti xx
ReplyDeleteOooh, I just love this Marcia! That little acorn is the perfect teeny stamp to create your background with. The fall floral spray is lovely. The twine adds nice rustic texture too. Very fall-ish my friend!
ReplyDeleteOfficially longing for cooler weather and fall season, so your card just brought autumn breezes... so so pretty, both with fall colors and the gorgeous leafy spray. Just the right touch of twine. Looks perfect, Marcia. And as for the misti, we don't stray far from each other. Oh and love those lines of little acorns!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is just so adorable...love your background of petite acorns, so perfect for your fall leaves. Simply fabulous!
ReplyDeleteAwesome card. I LOVE the acorn images. I am so ready for fall. It has been so hot and dry here! Perfect card!!!
ReplyDeleteMarcia, what a lovely Fall card! The design with the stamped background and the colors used are wonderful. I've had Fall on the brain the entire summer because it's been so hot!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely fall-feeling card, Marcia! I love it...especially the little acorns. Yup, the Misti makes wonders happen. I dream of cooler weather (2 weeks now of temps into the 90s)...but unfortunately our Falls here in SoCal bring 100+ temps. UGH!
ReplyDeleteThat little acorn makes a fantastic background, Marcia! Love the circle aperture and the spray of Fall leaves and acorns! I guess it's time to start thinking about Fall!
ReplyDeleteI love the direction you've gone with this! Your tiny acorn background and that cluster of autumn prettiness are just wonderful!
ReplyDeletePrecious fall card! So funny how in the middle of a season we all look forward to the next! I love Quilted: Autumn also. Your details of kraft, string and florals work well together.
ReplyDeleteThis is adorable Marcia! Great way to use those small stamps that are usually forgotten. Love the colours of the leaves and background with the kraft paper. Great design! xx
ReplyDeleteLove your fall themed card!! I like how your pattern is behind the circle die cut.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful... So clean and with gorgeous earthy tones... Autum is a lovely season and you captured it perfectly with this beauty Marcia! Have a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool pattern you created with those acorns, Marcia! I love your design and Fall colors popping against Kraft card stock.
