I figured what better way to re-enter the cardmaking realm than to do a challenge! After coming home from early summer holidays, starting renos so we can put our house on the market by August 1st, oh and work, I needed some me time.
Since the one layer wednesday challenge was "patriotic", and we've been out of the country for 3 weeks, I definately needed to get crafting! I thought I better get back in slowly with something simple! Ha! It took 3 tries and I'm still not ecstatic about the result but that's ok.
I couldn't find any fireworks and I really wanted to use my new clouds background stamp, then I found this leaf. I thought, since the weather here has been so crappy and rainy, falling leaves might still be appropriate given the circumstances!
Thanks so much for looking, and I can't wait to have some time to do some blog surfing of my own.
Welcome back :)
ReplyDeleteYour card is simply beautiful :o)
ReplyDeleteI love the clouds in grey -- what a great idea for a "rainy day" kind of card!
ReplyDeleteOoh, love the color combo and the leaves against the sky.
ReplyDeleteSO TOTALLY WORTH the effort! I love this! The cloud background works so perfectly as a backdrop to the falling leaves! Very creative!
