Autumn is one of my favorite seasons. The mornings are crisp and the skies are as colorful as the "Quakies". In fact, this morning I woke up to a full moon and a sky blanketed with so many puffy clouds it looked like I was covered with sheets of cotton. It was too dark for my little camera so the shots didn't come out. But, trust me, it was fantastic!
This cute little "A la Carte" stamp (Leaves of a Tree #123843) is in the 2011 Holiday Mini, page 43. I love these single stamps for quick thoughts or works of art. They're economical too! To achieve the hand drawn look, I colored the stamp with an Early Espresso Stampin' Write Marker, making sure not to color too dark. After stamping, I highlighted the leaves and tree branches with Early Espresso, More Mustard, Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie & Peach Parfait Stampin' Write Markers. You can't see it but I just touched some of the leaves with our new Dazzling Details Glitter Glue #124117. Finishing it off with a sentiment from Petite Pairs #122497 and a scrap of the new 3/8" Quilted Satin Ribbon #124104.

Wow! Very pretty. I'm glad you mentioned the Dazzling Details, because I would not have noticed, but can see it now. It's very hard to get it to show up in photos, but it really makes such a nice look. Really pretty card. Thanks for sharing.
Your card is lovely! Thanks for sharing.
