Happy Thursday! Time for another Create with Connie and Mary Challenge…this time a pretty, fall color combination!

I’ve used Autumn Goodness (again!) on today’s card…the colors were perfect for coloring the floral image, although I did add a hint of yellow to represent the gold in the designer paper.

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Mint Macaron cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- On top is a 4 x 5-1/4 piece of Gilded Autumn Designer Paper, the metallics are SO pretty in this DSP!
- The 3-1/4 x 4-1/4 piece of Early Espresso cardstock was added on a diagonal to the front.
- The 3/4 x 4 piece of coordinating Gilded Autumn DSP was added across the front.
- The rectangle was cut from Very Vanilla cardstock with the Stitched Rectangles Dies.
- The floral bouquet was stamped up and down on the rectangle with Memento Black Ink and the greeting in the center with Cajun Craze Ink , then colored with Cajun Craze Combo, Mint Macaron Combo, Bronze and Dark Daffodil Delight Blends. It was added with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of Champagne Rhinestones were added in the background for a little bling!

SOOO pretty! I love that greeting! OK…check out the rest of the Challenge Team ideas over on Create with Connie and Mary!
