Yesterday, I took photos of my girls with a few of their cousins playing outside in the leaves and thought today would be perfect to play with this set. (BTW: Thank you, Karen!) Seeing five beautiful little girls all dressed up in fall colors, throwing leaves all around and having an absolute blast, I thought that would be enough inspiration for me to attemp to colors these adorable little girls in. I have to admit, I am feeling kinda aweful uploading this card because I feel my coloring turned out aweful! I really, REALLY tried! I loved the way it was colored in my head. The image looked just as colorful and happy as the girls did playing outside yesterday! Not so much after I put it on paper! Karen you really do make it look EASY to colors these little ones in! Going to have to take a class from you, cause I am in DESPERATE NEED!
I did play with the layout and decided to make a larger size card.
Hope you like it...somewhat!
What do you think of those leaves as my "circle" embellishment? I'm not too sure about them! Tell me what you think!

You sure did this in a flash Jenna considering the time you had. It is adorable! I'm even more anxious to get this set now. The lace is wonderful! You know how I love lace!

Jenna, I think you're too hard on yourself too (having said that, I've had my moments of looking at my coloring and wishing I could take classes from Karen too!!!!!) Beautiful colors, this image is sooooo sweet. That touch of lace is very pretty, and yes, I like the leaf embellishment!
