Artful Delight Friday - Thinking of You


Happy Friday!

I'm loving the gorgeous fall colors in this month's Artful Delight kit, so rich and deep, it's got me ready for fall despite the unseasonably warm weather we're having in Virginia right now.

I used this month's card sketch today, although I simplified it a bit interpreting the two boxes as a polaroid.  


That big flower is fussy cut from one of the Echo Park papers, I love how bold and showy it is.


I wanted the sentiment to be very subtle so I pulled out Lawn Fawn's Milo's Alphas for that, and then added some of the Lawn Fawn sequins for a bit of sparkle.

I was hoping to get some serious card making done for World Card Making Day tomorrow, but this weekend is jam packed, so we'll see how it goes.  Thanks for stopping by and have a great end to your week!

Supplies Used:  Artful Delight October Card Kit; CTMH - Cocoa ink; Lawn Fawn - Milo's Alphas; Tombow - Mono Adhesive
