Golden Leaves Card-September 2021 Blog




     Hello, my card making friends. It has been some time since I have blogged. Sometimes life gets away from us and time passes so quickly. I can't believe fall is here and it is finally cooling down here in Aztec, New Mexico. 

    One of my card class students encouraged this card design by requesting a fall card for October's class. I, typically, do not buy fall stamps because I do not use them enough to justify the cost. So I took a look at the stamps I do have and I saw the Forever Fern Stamps on the shelf. A card idea was born. 

     This is a easy card to make and is perfect for fall. Thank You for stopping by my blog and I hope you try making the card.

    If you do not have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and would like one I hope you will consider me. My email is creativecardsbybrendaliesse@gmail.com
