I'm here with a quick post to share a card I made for these challenge:

CFC71 Create a Clean And Simple project inspired by autumn
I love these colors and especially the cute little dress in the center picture. I was immediately inspired to get out "A Little Argyle", and ink it up in Blueberry Sky and Dark Chocolate. I couldn't resist adding a little touch of Autumn since it's only 70 degrees here today AND there is a touch of color showing in the top of the Red Maple in our back yard!
So here it is:
I enjoyed using the rock and roll technique on the "Leaf Prints" in the background. Since the solid stamp was inked with VersaMark, I started with the veined stamp inked with Classic Kraft, then applied the solid stamp after I rolled the edges with the same Classic Kraft ink. It was impossible to see the solid stamp to properly line everything up doing it the other, more traditional way. The Nutty Acorn die, by Memory Box was used on Fine Linen card stock, colored with more Classic Kraft and Dark Chocolate inks using a sponge dauber. The sentiment, from "Autumn Hills", was also stamped with Dark Chocolate. the Blueberry Sky ribbon was the last touch applied to this Fine Linen card base.
There it is. All products are from Papertrey Ink except the Memory Box die, and VersaMark Ink. I look forward to hearing your comments!
Thanks for stopping by,
Suzanne
