Autumn Colours - Prepping Early! with Sheena Douglass Stamps

Hi Everyone

Today Mandy-Jane is sharing with you a card she made a little while ago.  We have been thinking about Summertime the last couple of days but this doesn't mean we are not thinking that 3 months ahead for the next season.....lol

Looking through the Core'dindation card stock the oranges, burnt sienna and golden yellows were shouting ....'use me, use me' then it came to Mandy-Jane that she had done a card previuosly using those colours.  She dug and she dug and low and behold she found the photo!

 
 
We Used
 
Core'dinations Card
 
Darice Embossing Folder - Stripes
 
Spellbinders Die - Leaves
 
Sheena Douglass Stamps - Silhouette Country Lane
 
Versfine Ink - Onyx Black
 
 
Only a quickie but effective.  Great for a man's card.
 
We hope you have been inspired.
