This beautiful and earthy set penned by Marcella Hawley features three main images, two accent images and six mix and match sentiments. Set measures 4 by 6".

Fall stamps are so fun I think as it just gets us that much closer to the Christmas sets. LOL I know how bad is that, but its the truth with me. I stamped the barrel image onto Classic White Cardstock using Memento tuxedo black ink.
Colored with Copic Collections:





The beautiful rectangle die is new to me from Spellbinders as a gift from a friend. I have the inside panel die cut and popped up on dimensionals. Added some white lace trim and two Color Made Easy Ribbons  Peach from Tiger Lily and Primrose from Sunflower and tied off a bow with a brown button and jute twine combo. Voila!
. So while you're visiting the Design Team remember that you're also looking for one last... Mystery Blogger Graphic
