FALL IS HERE (AUTUMN)

Good morning, here it is Tuesday and I am here with another card to share. I have to keep this short, I need to be ready to leave about 7 am for work. My card today is mostly about the fall, the colors make me think of the leaves changing colors. October and November in Chicago. That is one of  the things that I miss about home. But, I do not miss the cold hard winters that come next. Ok, moving on. My sketch is from Priscilla Styles Midnight Madness:
I always like to pick the ones that are more fancy. You know how I like the bling and embellishments.

My balloon is colored with Copics C1, C3, YG95, YG97, YR14, YR04, Y17. The balloon and sentiment were a set that I bought at Michaels from the $1 bin. I love hot air balloons. And I am planning to take a ride on one sometime in the near future. Especially if I can get someone else to pay that $280 fee. I have checked into it. The bling is from my stash as is the ribbon and flowers. The flowers are another one of those things that I talked about yesterday. Where you buy stuff, put it in a drawer or storage box and forget that you have it. I was going through my stuff, just like I said I would and found 4 or 5 different sets of flowers that I had not used since I bought them. Now I am looking for a place ato store them where they can be seen. I used my Cuttlebug to cut the shapes with my Nesstibilities Label 3 and the sparkly brad in the center is from Michaels. One more thing, all of the papers for this card are from my scrap file. It has got to be used.  Now, you know there are some challenges involved, so here they are.
