Wild Flower Kids release day


This is my card for the Wild Flowers Kids release. Boy did I struggle with this. Autumn (or Fall for you girls in the USA) is not something we celebrate in Australia so I really had no idea what sentiment to put?? I tried adding so many things to this card but it really took away from the pretty leaves. So in the end I went with a cleaner and simpler look and just added some diamantes for interest.

Stamps: Autumn Leaves by Wild Flowers Kids, SU Baroque Motifs

gorgeous card, hee hee, sounds like it's a card to give someone who falls and just escapes breaking a hip! ROFL!!! Sorry, culturally insensitive I know....it is a lovely card though. I love autumn, we should celebrate it.
