I guess today's card fits in with the turn of weather and the start of autumn. The finished card measures 15 x 15 cms. I've stamped the Large Christmas Corner stamp onto a slightly smaller card 14cm x14cm - if you line up the corner of the stamp with each corner of the the card you get a perfect fit with equal space between the stamped images. To paint the images I used the acrylic inks. I've also added a dash of gold acrylic ink to the petals and a smidgen of glitter to the leaves and finished off with faux pearl gems.
For the middle of the card I've used "Just For You" from the Script Sentiment collection and the holly leaves from the Big Christmas collection. I stamped the sentiment and the holly leaf onto some inked glossy card background I made with the spray inks and acrylic paints (tutorial can be found on my blog - Inky Backgrounds ). Cut the leaves and sentiment out -mount the words onto a piece of co-coordinating card or paper and glue to the center of the card, add the holly leaves to the corners and finish off with a couple of faux pearl gems.

I hope the weather is kind to you where you are.
Till next time happy crafting.
