Beautiful Autumn ...

This has to be one of the most prettiest times of the year don't you think? 
When the trees are an abundance of yellows, reds, coppers and gold 
Like this weeks' inspiration photo at Papercraft Star


I still have the most pretty yellow roses in bloom too ... I guess nature is having a hard time deciding what season it is with our unpredictable weather.

The challenge this week at Papercraft Star is "Fall Colours"
If you hop over to the blog ... you will notice that we have changed things up a bit too ... We like to keep up with things and hope that you will be encouraged to join us each week regardless of your style...

So on to my card this week ....


Pretty autumnal leaves with a glittered Prima flower


That lovely leaf ribbon came from my friend Lauren


... and the gorgeous postcard is a freebie from Lilac & Lavender 

Don't forget to check out the projects from the rest of our team ... and note that you also have an extra day to link up your projects ...

Have a beautiful Autumn / Fall day

Congrats on your promotion to Senior Designer Ros! :-) This project is so lovely. Those little birdies are so sweet and the pop of beautiful fall colors just shines. Hugs!

Beautiful card, Ros, love the colors you used! I still have butterflies and lots of flowers in all shades including pinks and purples, so I guess fall is relative to what you grow in your area! Have a wonderful day!

This might be the second time I'm commenting... having some trouble here. Anyway: FABULOUS card, Ros! And the inspiration photo is a real eye catcher as well. And by the way: we also still have roses in bloom (pink ones).

Ros, this is over the top gorgeous... absolutely fabulous!!! Whose leaves pop off the card... the perfect touch!

Unknown said...

What a fabulous way to dress up your card Ros, using soft, delicate colours and then all of a sudden there's the warm red of the leaves, so very beautiful! Hugs, Ira x

Michelle said...

Wow!!!! The prima flower is beautiful and the post card is devine....but it's the 'Ros' touch that makes this card AMAZING!!! So wonderful, Ros!

♥Jan♥ said...

I have to agree with Michelle - your touch is what turns a card into something so sweet and yet so dynamic, how can those two go together ?? You manage to do that a lot !! (and I am totally stealing this postcard idea too) Congrats on a well deserved promotion to Senior Designer. !! Hugs ! ♥♥♥ -J-
