I used Wetlands for my Card "Create"tions card set this past week on the Fall Collection card week, so I thought I'd show off one more card using this set! I love it and definitely has a "fallish" look to it, don't you think?

Here are the details:

The 4 1/4 x 11 base of Crumb Cake is folded in half to make the base card.
I cut a 3 3/4 x 5 piece of Chocolate Chip to place on top.
Then I used a 3 1/2 x 3 3/4 piece of Whisper White that I embossed with the Woodgrain Folder and swiped the Chocolate Chip ink pad over top to bring out the raised areas.
I stamped the goose from Wetlands on a scrap piece of Whisper White, then cut it with the Deco Label Framelit. I sponged around the edges with Crumb Cake ink. I also colored it lightly with the AquaPainter and Crumb Cake and Crushed Curry ink. I placed it on the front with Stampin' Dimensionals.
I stamped Hello from A Dozen Thoughts in Chocolate Chip on 1/2" Crumb Cake cardstock and cut a flag end.
To finish it off, I used 3 of the Crushed Curry Candy Dots above the greeting.
