Fall Birthday Card and a Little Fall Vignette

Here's another version of a Fall card I made using our Blended Seasons stamp set.  I made a big batch of these for the September birthday cards for our church to send out.  I'm actually using this same stamp set for their October birthdays and I'll be sharing that card soon.

I layered 2 punched pieces to create the focal piece of the card.

Notice how the top layer pops when you add a black mat behind it.

Here's a little Fall vignette for you to enjoy.  I made this sampler several years ago and am still enjoying displaying it each Fall season.

Hello Cherry Cobbler, my Dear Friend

I haven't made a card with Cherry Cobbler for a while, so it was so much fun to get it out again for today's card.  One of our brand new Watercolor Pencils is Cherry Cobbler and it made me so happy to see it.  I was actually amazed at how deep the colors turned out.  You can keep layering on the color as much as you'd like.  I think the flowers came out really pretty. 

The card is kept very simple, to let the colors be the star.  Later, I'll share another version of this card, using Stampin' Blends for the coloring.

Here are all 4 of my cards again.  These were fun to create.  Which one is your favorite?
