Mark's Finest Papers Blog Hop Day 1




This fun new set is called Autumn Fun and is perfect for this time of the year and nature~all occasion cards for every other day. For the first card I made a wreath out of the leaves in the set stamping them in olive, red, rust, yellow, and olive. The sentiment is stamped in cocoa, the designer paper is from Sandy Lion that I had in my stash of supplies along with the buttons. Gold leaves charm, ribbon and gold cording are from Mark's Finest Papers also.

The second card uses the squirrel, bushel of leaves and acorns from the set. Don't you just love that squirrel? The sketch is Mojo154, frame is the new Lacy Squares Nestabilities, designer paper SU.
