AUTUMN

I don't know about you, but I am really ready for cooler weather and Autumn to arrive.  It's my favorite time of year.  Next week I will be traveling to Oregon for a visit with my daughter and son-in-law, and I can't wait!  Leaves changing colors, wood smoke in the air, some rain and hiking in the woods!  AHHHH yes, I am ready!  

So in honor of my favorite season I have been busy with my Thanksgiving cards.  This one was done with a Cuttlebug folder for the embossing, then some leaves stamped on a lighter shade of paper, a bit of ribbon and a rhinestone sentiment from Micheal's.  It came together pretty well for such a simple design.
