It is sunday again- you know what that mean?


Challenge at Dotties World, and this week I am the one to set the challenge. And this is what I have to say about that.


Here in Norway, and far north where I live, it is really Autum/Fall now. The nature show us lots of beautiful colors, from green to yellow and orange- and the deep shade of red. I want you to get inspired with these colors and use them on a card, at least one or two of them.
And I think gold suits these colors so well, so I want you to use some gold on the card as well. That can be some gold embossing, a ribbon a paper or what ever you want.
And ofcourse I charmed digi download has to be included.
Let nature inspire you and have fun.

Gunn :-D

This is my card for this week. It is not so much stash going on here. It is the leafs that are my embellishment and I punched them out with different punches. Then I used three - four different shades of glimmermist to get the right color. When the glimmer mist wast dried I distressed them with colorbox fluid chalk. The big leafs and acorn are a Penny Black stamp, and i embossed it with gold and colored it with Prisma colors.

Cardstock are ClubScrap and StampinUp. DP are from Maja Design and this paper is so beautiful, that I did not want to cover it with lots of stach, that`s why it is only leafs as embellishment.
The sentiment are from StampinUp, and I used their punches to get this shape.
This image is a charmed one and it is a part of the Girl about Town Kit. And If you want this, you can buy it here.

Another close up picture of my card, here you can see the leafs.



So run over to Dotties and take a look at my fellow DT and their amazing work. I am so lucky to work with such a clever bunch of girls.
