Fall Rays

It's October already! Where did the year go? I love Autumn. It's time for the next challenge at Where the HeART is.  It is being sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs.  The challenge is ...Use a Stencil/Anything Goes.  I got a couple of stencils awhile back from one of my Sassy Sisters as a Thank you.  I haven't used stencils much in the past.  I figured this would be a great challenge to see what I could do.  Then I saw an amazing card video by Kristina Werner.  She used a stencil. Here is a link to that card. I had to try it. It was so much fun. Here is my card.

Fall Pocahontas

Happy Thursday! It the first Thursday of November. The weather has changed here in Pennsylvania.  It now feels like fall. Being that it's Thursday, it's time for a new Dare To Be Sassy Thursday challenge (#254) at Sassy Studio Designs.  This week's challenge is a sketch challenge.

Here is my take on the sketch.

A Sassy Fall

"All the Leaves are Brown"..... Actually they are also turning Red and Orange and Yellow.  That is one of the things I like about living in this part of the country where we have 4 seasons. I like Fall (not just because my birthday was yesterday. hahaha), one reason is the cooler weather.  I'm sure a lot of the country will be glad to see the heat be over with after this past summer.  So that's the theme this week at  Sassy Studio Designs' Dare To Be Sassy Thursday (#196) "Fall Colors".
Here's what I created.

Fall is in the Air

One of the things I like about living in Pennsylvania is the changing of the seasons.  I'm not a big fan of hot summers. That is why I look forward to autumn. (plus my birthday is in September  hahaha)  I decided to play along this week at the {Pin}spirational Challenge.  I haven't played in a while. And wanted to get back into it.  Here is the Pinspirational image for this week.

And here is what I created.

Inside sentiment-from Pinspirational image

The original image had snow flakes around it. I cut around the image and  popped up the image on homemade tan foam squares.  I added a smaller image and the wording from the Pinspirational image to the inside of the card. The piece of DP that I added to the inside says "FALLING".  But after it was cut, it kind of looks like tree branches with the leaves.

I hope I did okay after not playing along for awhile.
