Fall is coming......

Hello all & Happy Monday!

I hope that you all had a good weekend. Here in NYC, the weather has cooled down alot. Even today, it feels like a Fall day. It's a bit cloudy and damp and the weather man said the high for today is 73 degrees. I like the Fall weather, but it makes me really realize that summer is truly gone.

So, in light of this Fall, I decided to do a card that represent this season. On this card, I did some emboss resist . I also used Tim Holtz Distress Inks. The colors came out wonderful and I am so pleased with the end result.

Hope you are getting excited about the changing of the seasons. Thanks so much for stopping by!
