This card is for Rex, my father-in-law. He is the recipient of cards for this week's Teapot Challenge, "Sending Smiles," hosted by Polly. I'm sure he's going to love and appreciate all the beautiful cards you special ladies have created! Thank you so much!
He is 95 and just entered an Assisted Living facility this last spring. We took him for a drive to see all the colorful fall leaves in Wisconsin. I made him this card to remind him of the Autumn beauty this coming winter when it's cold and snowy!

You used some of that gorgeous dp again for Rex! So thrilled to read that he now knows about all the cards coming his way. Love that the quarantine has already been lifted! Yay!

That looks like the same gorgeous paper you used for your Tickle card, methinks. I love the sketch-book look if it. And the stems cut "out of the box" add a real feeling of movement. Lots of leaves down here, but we don't get as much colour as you do.

Love that gorgeous collage of autumn color and leaves. The partial cutting along the edge adds such a wonderful dimension. I am sure he will be transported every time he see this beauty. Fabulous card.
