FALL IS IN THE AIR

Can you fill it? The change in the air. A week ago it was still close to 100 degrees. Now the temp is going down to 40 degrees at night. An even here in Alabama the leaves are starting to fall. The only thing is that there is not a lot of red, orange, yellow colors on the trees. They just seem to drop off. But, the air is cooler and my hayfever is in full force.

I had a busy and productive weekend and came up with the following card. This is  one that I did not have to color but a very little and that was my owl. I loved the embellisments that I used. I think they were perfect for this card.


The leaves and fibers and the word Fall is a Jolie embellishment set that I bought from AC Moore a while ago. Before they closed the store in Montgomery, AL. I got a lot of Jolies for $1. So I bought all I could. The card stock is Bazzill. The bling is and sparkly is a set I bought at Walmart last week for $3 . They don't have a lot of scrapbooking products anymore. But, I did like the bling.  The owl is a digi image that I paper pieced. I printed it a couple of times colored it with my copics and used moving eyes.



The papers are My Minds Eye Home. I did not finish the inside because I wasn't sure how I wanted to use it. I will probably just use it as a thinking of you card for one of my grandkids.

I have several challenges that I am entering this card into.
