Falling Leaves

Photo Details

Poster: stinkincute

Here is my card for today's CAS challenge to use color blocking technique. I went with a fall theme today, my favorite season! I love the autumn colors of the leaves here in the northeast and tried to capture a few of them in my card today. The leaves are from a There She Goes stamp set and the sentiment is from My Favorite Things. The solid stamp used for blocking was from an old favorite of mine - Stampin Up Priceless.

I just love the fall theme to this card. The flourish patterns of the stamps and "swoops" of leaves are great!

Lovely autumn card. That's one of my favorite mft sentiments, and the leaves stamped over your color blocks are perfect.

Kelly, I absolutely love autumn cards and this one went right into my favs. I LOVE that you used graduated coloring with the blocks, too. Most attractive.

Nice color blocks and leaves! Pretty card! I like the texture in your blocks and the swirly flourish on your blocks and outside the blocks. :)

Love that sentiment and how you added the leaves in the blocks...TFS..:0)

We as people are raindrops of colorful ink , falling down Crisp and Clear, each a different shade more vibrant then the last, but once we realize at the bottom of an endless abyss we all fall into the same inkpot forming one color, only then can we come together as one My son.
