Friday Mashup! Shades of Autumn!

Don't you love Fridays?? The start of the weekend...maybe movie night or the local high school football game. But for me, it's time for the Friday Mashup!!! This week, we begin celebrating Autumn...which is my FAVORITE season!!! Lisa has given us a beautiful challenge this week!

1. Create a project with an "Autumn" theme
2. Create a project using shades of orange and yellow

3. Or Mash it Up! And create a project with an autumn theme, using shades of orange and yellow



I made a square card again...love these! I began with a crumb cake card base, then added a scallop circle cut from naturals ivory with my Big Shot. Using more mustard ink, I stamped the sentiment from On Your Birthday. I decided to have fun with my Sizzix Leaves #2 die, and the square lattice and houndstooth impressions folder with my Big Shot. I used peach parfait, cajun craze, so saffron, and more mustard card stock for the leaves. After embossing, I lightly sponged with soft suede ink, then placed them randomly, popping some up with dimensionals. I finished it off with a Spice Cake designer button, available in the Holiday Mini catalog.


I hope you enjoy jumping in the leaves and taking part in the Friday Mashup! Can't wait to see what you create!
