Happy Fall!!! Friends,


Counting my Blessings in all situations.  Usually I have my visit planned to go see my mom in Michigan this time of year. Sadly, I won't be traveling until this shoulder is better.  I haven't seen her since May so this really is sad for both of us and my nieces and nephews I always love seeing them to. A few years ago we all went on a spooky haunted hay ride.  I thought my mom was going to have a heart attack- she laughed the whole time. She is so much fun to be with.  I am so grateful she is still here.

This has been one of the busiest weeks for me in a long time. This is like back to school for me with planning and preparation for lots of events and some shows. Yes I will be exhibiting in a show later in the year.


Onto my card. A2 size



This is some Debbi Mumm paper from a couple of years ago. It has such a homey fall feel to it

It is on PIT vintage cream, The ribbon is from the 50 cent bin at Michaels and for binging it up I added stickles to the leaves. It didn't really need a sentiment the designer paper says it all.

Challenges:
Cardz-tv-bling it up
clearly inspired -fall into fall
Inspire me Fridays:AG
Crazy 4 challenges:Thank you /Thanksgiving 



Have a great and Blessed day, Diana

    What type of shows are you planning for? I would love to do another, but I need to build up a stock pile. Time to get busy again. I have been giving so much time to school I feel like I am neglecting my hobby too much. It is time to change that!

    Stay Creative,
