Card: Ornate Garden for Challenges

 Hello and Welcome! 

Welcome to today's post! I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend.  I was able to get into the she shed this weekend and work on a few cards focusing on a fall theme.  We are finally starting to see some signs of fall weather here in Austin and it is glorious! I started with some challenge inspiration for today's featured card.  

And here is today's project...

It may be fall, but I couldn't resist adding just a touch of those beautiful daisies featured in the Ornate Garden DSP.  I think the colors help to give this card that fall feel.  The rich Old Olive against the dark Early Espresso help to make the beautiful bumblebee daisies really stand out.  

I have to say that punches are my new favorite toy! They are so quick and easy to use and can really add a nice touch to any card.  The Lovely Labels punch is one of my most used punches and here it helps to give the sentiment a special stand out.  Do you have a favorite punch!?!
