Welcome to Create with Connie and Mary’s Creatively Simple Challenge! Each month Mary and I will pick a theme…this month it is “Add a Tag”, and we each create a simple card every Tuesday in September using that theme!
FOND OF AUTUMN

Stampin’ Details:
- Base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Crumb Cake cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-2/4 layer of Cajun Craze c/s is added on top.
- The 3-3/4 x 5 layer of Mossy Meadow c/s was embossed with the Leaf Fall Embossing Folder and adhered on top.
- The second from largest Tailored Made Tag was used to cut two different patterns from Rustic Harvest Designer Paper. They were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The third tag was cut from Basic White cardstock and stamped with the Fond of Autumn greeting in Cajun Craze Ink towards the bottom.
- The tag was tied with the Black & White Gingham Ribbon and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The large image from Fond of Autumn was stamped with Memento Black Ink and cut apart, then trimmed some to get an even smaller image. It was colored with Old Olive, Crumb Cake, Soft Suede and Cajun Craze Stampin’ Blends Combos and added to the tag with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of Champagne Rhinestones were added to the background of the tag.

Quick & easy, but I love the look of the three tags together! Make sure to check out Mary’s cute tag card over on Create with Connie and Mary!
