Do you know that "The Play Date Cafe" is hosting their 42nd challenge this week? Here is what they shared as an inspiration piece -
Aren't those camels cute??? I didn't manage to get them onto my card - but the inspiration colours just looked so deliciously "fall-ish" to me .... and so here is where it went:
To add to the 'cosy' feel, I used felt for the flower ... and lots of shimmer for some elegance that seems to befit the season :0)
I started with some patterned paper and stamped the flourish, polka dots and text over the top of it, for some layering. The leaves were stamped and embossed with clear embossing powder for a little shine, dimension and visual interest.
The flower was cut out using my PTI Beautiful Blooms dies.
There it is :0) Thanks for popping in and visiting me!
Have a totally wonderful day (don't spend too much if you're at the PTI release tonight *wink* !)

I can't wait for the Jar filler set for fall. That is #1 on my list. Not so excited about any of the other PTI sets this release.
