This week's challenge is about the seasons. I chose Autumn as my favorite season. The colors, the cool nip in the air, football season, harvesting the bounty from the land, are some of the things that make it special. It is also the time of the year we are reminded to give thanks for all our blessings. This card was made for a friend from SCS. The best part about this card....I hand delivered it to GailNM in Iowa this week. There is nothing better than a hug from a friend. There was another added bonus..the meeting of Sherri aka Sherrird. The two of them made the trip so fun. I computer generated the sentiment, and embossed it with gold eb powder. The paper has a glossy finish, which enabled it to be embossed. Watercolored the pumpkins, and fussy cut them. Die cut the memory box branch three times, and using versamarker and gold embossing power to emboss them. Adhered the image and dies. Thanks for looking, and hope you can play along in the challenge.

Linda, you have so much heart in your cards and it truly shows in this one! How amazing that you embossed a computer generated sentiment and still maintained such clarity with dry embossing too! Your water coloring is just gorgeous!

This is an autumn beauty. I love those pumpkins and the gold embossing. How wonderful to get to meet these stampers and I know Gail loved this card.
I'm sure I don't have to remind you there is a big football game this weekend.
Fav'd and pinned.
