Hello,
Welcome to Just Us Girls Challenge #702, where our wonderful hostess, Ina, has selected this lovely Autumn/Fall mood board as this week's inspiration.

We're delighted to have Bonnie Klass joining us as our October Guest Designer.
I wanted to create with something other than leaves (I know...weird to say given how much I LOVE leaves of late), so a little wander over to Concord & 9th offered inspiration from one of their designer's cards found here.
Even though my card more-or-less cases the original design, it features the palette from the mood board. A quick run through with the Stitched Leaves card front die added some pretty background texture, along with being a 'nod' to the leaves in the photo. I'm pleased with my results; another card for the Halloween stash heading to my sister-in-law.
Looking forward to seeing how the Mood Board inspires you.
Thank you for dropping by!
This is so darn cute! I love those happy jack-o-lanterns with the pretty leaves and all of the speech bubble boos against that subtle embossed leafy background. Adorable!
ReplyDeleteLook at those happy guys! You did an outstanding job with your inspiration. Love use of the cutting plate for the background, too. 'Gourd' job! ;)
