Hello September!

Hello! and how did it finish being summer already? In honour of it being September, I thought I'd do a fall/autumn inspired card using several different Lawn Fawn sets.
The background was created by using the Louie's 123's dies. I added the dies onto the card blank, saved the insides of the numbers & added a layer of acetate behind the front to which I added the insides of the 6,8,9 & 4.

The little bird is courtesy of this lovely set. I've not inked up the bird before, but I wanted the idea of the bird perching on a tree which was shedding its leaves (or hearts in this case!)

To get the tiny hearts, I used the dies from the Hello Baby die set; there are two different sized hearts- they may be tiny, but are ever so useful!

The little tree is, in fact from the Into The Woods set, but as that's out of stock- and there's THIS yummy new set instead (which is winging its way to me as I type, but didn't make it here in time for me to create this project!!). The trees here would be great, just trimmed down slightly.

That's quite enough flannel for me.. I'm starting to think of warming casseroles and steamed puddings, and hot water bottles and a roaring fire...oh wait..that's an advert..I don't have an open fire!! Meanwhile, I hope you don't have to put away your sandals just yet ;-)
 
See you next week,
