JUGS challenge #209

I finally got a card that I wanted to enter in this week's challenge at Just Us Girls. It is a sketch challenge and I do have trouble with them. I tackled with this one three times before I got one worth posting. It was not a difficult challenge, just one that I had trouble with.

The card that I did used a pretty DP that I thought looked "Fallish" and I matched it up with some green. I used GKD stamp set call A Year of Leaves. It was the very first one that I bought from her and I have been hooked ever since. I colored the leaf and the acorn with Copics and "Pop" them out. The sentiment is from Seasonal Labels also from GKD. I stamped it on a die from Spellbinders, but you only see part of the die here. That ribbon is what makes the card. Don't you think? I stayed up late to make this and took the picture in the early morning sun. Best time for that.


You still have time to try this one out. Give it a try or may two or three!
