Fall Delight

Happy Fall!!  It's a gray, cool, rainy day here in Texas, and I'm loving it!!!!!!!!!!!  Fall is finally here in my neck of the woods, and I'm hoping this is the last of the 100+ degree weather.  I raced home after work to create this card and I love how it turned out.  :-)

I had two challenges in mind when I was creating this card.  The challenge at Cheery Lynn Designs #45 is Borders and Edgers and the Color Throwdown #209 has colors that match perfectly with the papers that I wanted to use.  For the Cheery Lynn Designs challenge, I used the Lace Light Deco border at the bottom of this card, but I changed it a little bit.  I cut out the border, then cut that in half and layered one piece behind and slightly up from the other one.  It's a great way to change up the look of a border.

For the Color Throwdown, I definitely used Summer Sun (sunflower), Chocolate Chip (flourish, border), and Old Olive (leaves, background layer).  The Rust and Cherry Cobbler can be seen in the patterned paper that I used here, and you can see the other three colors in the patterned paper as well.  It's like this paper was destined to be used for this particular color challenge.
