Karen is the FS today. What a marvelous gallery from start to finish. Sooooo many I wish I could even come close to CAS'ing. I finally decided on two. This one and this one . I loved the tree on the one card and the bright colors on the other. Liked the flowers too, but the tree just called out to me. Plus I had the perfect stamp for it. hehe.......details....
Since I am combining two cards the changes are pretty obvious.....flower to a tree, square card to a rectangle and sentiment....plus a few other minor things. I stamped the tree and clear ep. Stippled with green and vintage photo. Then stippled around the outer edges with sunshine yellow.
On the edges of this panel I stamped the heart shaped leaves, clear eb. The stamp I used is from Clear Dollar Stamps called Medley of gratitude. This was a gift of appreciation to me for my time on the DT. It will never be sold. Sorry because it is a way cool set.
Sponged on pumpkin pie then really rust. Now here was the fun part, adding all the white dots that just make your card pop. I love when Karen does this because she does it so very well!.
Layered this with brown cs, then put on a white card with the edges sponged sunshine yellow. Added the sentiment clear eb it.
Karen, thanks for letting us browse through your delightful gallery. I hope you are having a very fun day! I am. hehe..........TFL :0)

Oh my! What gorgeous colors you used! I love the look of this card. The borders of leaves around the entire card is to die for! Its beautiful!
If I had a pumpkin pie I would probably eat it but I am so impressed with your discipline to sponge it on a card! Who's a thunk! Giggle!
