Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge #65

My second post in almost as many hours! But this time I am posting my card for our photo challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More. Our photo this week is bursting with inspiration.......take a look:


Isn't it just fabulous! There is so much you could take from this-the colours, the variety of fruit, flowers, leaves and so much more.

I had to go with the Autumn theme and went directly to my 'Autumn Flowers stamps by Clearly Besotted Stamps. 

(hover over the image and click on the red button to pin it to your Pinterest board)

I masked off an area using post it notes and blended various inks to give this Autumn glow. I then stamped the leaves in brown and added the gorgeous sentiment from Verve. And used my linen impression plate to give my card texture.

The DT have come up with some fabulous projects to inspire you. Please take a peek at them here.

If you need some extra inspiration, this week Nicecrane Designs are sponsoring us and you could win a $20 gift voucher!

This picture for me was all the inspiration I needed and I hope you feel the same and are already getting inky and stamping away!!

I am also going to enter this into the 'Harvest' challenge at CASology, my sentiment prompting me to add this,
