Fall Fun Blog Hop

 
Hello and welcome to the Fall Fun Blog Hop! A group of online buddies decided the holiday weekend in the US would be a GREAT time to get inky together, and so we've put together a fall themed blog hop to inspire you as the autumn approaches. As you meet our stampy bloggers today, you may discover that some have goodies for you, so be sure and visit everyone on the list. We have hoppers from all over the globe today, and they are amazing artists.

Hope you're having a great holiday Monday so far - here in Northern Ireland it's just a regular school/work day - but don't feel too sorry for us, last Monday was a holiday here!   On this gorgeous island it's still beautifully green, but yesterday on the way to church I saw just a few leaves starting to turn orange and yellow.
For my fall card I reached for My Minds Eye Stella and Rose Mabel dp - it includes a great combo of aqua/teal and orange which I'm very into recently.  My leaves are from Sweet and Sassy Stamps Autumn Leaves set, they're colored with copics and popped up.  I used a Verve Sweet Scallop tag and Plain Jane sentiment verse - though I don't know yet exactly who I'll send this too, I know this truth about God has the potential to bring so much encouragement and comfort to someone who is feeling really low.  
I finished off the card with lots of ribbon (what?? no twine??!!) and several flourishes cut with a Cheery Lynn Designs Fanciful Flourish.
Thanks so much for visiting!
After this head on over to see the fabulous creation Alison Habetler has come up with for today and don't miss out on any of the fun from these bloggers:
