Welcome!

So very nice of you to stop by! What a fun and challenging hobby to have!

May you always have work for your hands to do.
May your pockets hold always a coin or two.
May the sun shine bright on your windowpane.
May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you.
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.

Enjoy Nature's Splendor

This is today's challenge for Speedy the Cat's Week 72 -- Use a punch. NOW this was an easy challenge...biggest decision is WHICH punches to use! :-)Here is their website

I used Mark's Finest Products as the stamps..It's Fall mini set and Thankful for You on the inside. They were stamped with Chocolate Brown Memento and colored with Copics and Sakura glitter pens and cut out with Pumpkin die cuts from Spellbinders. Then sponged with Dandelion Memento ink. The cardstock is GKD Dandelion and the dp is Suzanne Brunstom. Inside I used Labels 14 for the die cuts.

I punched the fence with Martha Stewart punch, the owls are with Martha's embossing owl punch and the corners are Crop-A-Dile We R Memory Keepers Deco/Stub chomper.

Added a little brown ribbon cord and some leaves and a bow and It's Fall Y'ALL!!
