Challenge #443 - Colours of Autumn/Fall

 Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers, tomorrow its October and to me the start of Autumn/Fall and the colours that are displayed are always so pretty and as I live in the Forest of Dean we are so lucky to find lots of beautiful colours everywhere. So this weeks theme is

                                                    Colours of Autumn/Fall

 and this is your choice what sort of image you will want to use with this theme but they must cover all the shades of Autumn please.

I think its time for me to get on and to remind you that you will find some beautiful images over at The Paper Shelter and there's lot to choose from for this theme to. Our Sponsors are and as always are The Paper Shelter and they are offering a fabulous prize of $30. to spend on their website. 
 

But don't forget they will only give you the whole amount if you have used one of their images on your card but don't worry if you haven't, they will still give you 3 digi images or your own choice if you are picked as a winner.

For this weeks card I have used this image


This image is titled "Autumn Attitude" and you will find it here, I printed it onto white card and then coloured it with my copic pens, afterwards I used a rectangle die to cut it out and used a larger one out of brown card for the mount.

The base card is a 6.50"x 6.50" white card with a first mount out of the same brown card and the backing paper is also from the same design set as the image and your will find it here. The sentiment is one from my stash and I also mounted this onto brown card. 

I then placed my mounted image in the center and my sentiment in the bottom right hand corner, to finish of I have used several leaf buttons around the card as embellishments.

Now that you've seen my card I do hope that you will pay a visit to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot to see what the rest of the Design Team have created for your inspiration and hopefully you will want to take part in this  "Colours of Autumn/Fall" Challenge to.

This unusual image is titled "State of the Art Dogwalk" you will find it here and as hubby and I are very much computer nerds I felt this was ideal to create this card, mind you I think I may have to buy a drone to actually try it.
I printed it onto white card before colouring it with my copic pens and then cutting it out with one of my fancy rectangle dies and cutting a larger one out of blue card for the mount. The sentiment is one from my stash and I have also cut it out of white card and mounted it onto blue card.
The base card is a 6.50"x 6.50" white card with a first mount out of blue card the same I used the backing paper that came with the image and you will find it here. I then placed a bone ribbon around the card and attached it to the back and placed my mounted sentiment in the bottom right hand corner. I then placed my mounted image towards the top in the center.

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers, can you image at last it looks as if its going to be safe for the children to go back to School its been 6 months since they were last there and no doubt the Teachers are going to find trying to get them to concentrate on their work is definitely going to be a strain for them and to make sure they keep a social distance, lets hope they go back healthy without coughs, colds, tummy upsets all the nasties they seem to have when starting School

This is titled "In the Class" and you will find it here, I printed it onto white card and coloured it with my copic pens afterwards I used a square die to cut it out and created a larger square from brown card for the mount. The sentiment was stamped with a stamp from my stash and then cut out with a small rectangle die and this was also mounted onto a larger one out of brown card.
The base card is a 6.50"x 6.50" white card with a first mount also from the same brown card and then I placed the backing sheet from the same design set as the image and you will find it here, and then on top I have placed my mounted image and in the bottom right hand corner I have placed my sentiment.
