Autumn Collage

Good morning, and happy Friday! 

Yikes, Autumn is fast upon us, and we needed a very quick card...one that I could literally stamp, and take to the post office right away.  On one of my trips to deliver water samples for DH to a lab about an hour away, I simply HAD to stop at Melange, a beautiful gift and rubber stamp store in Ste. Genevieve, Mo.  You all know how it is - the car would NOT turn left at the junction, so I was helpless.  Decided to just suck it up and go with it...lol.

A couple of stamps found their way into the car for the trip home, and haven't yet been inked up.  Today was the day!

This is a rubber stamp by Memory Box, "Autumn Leaves Collage".  Using a Kaleidacolor "Autumn Leaves" ink pad, the image was inked and stamped. The mat and card base are Kraft Cardstock, the ribbon is a Stampin'Up seam binding that was a gift from my friend, Amanda, and the DP is from the My Mind's Eye 'Lost and Found Christmas' Collection.

Thanks for stopping by - off to the post office!

Oops, before I go, I wanted to invite you all to stop by this weekend!  I'm a Guest Designer for Inspired Stamps on Sunday, and have some fun projects to share!  If you haven't been to Inspired Stamps to meet Antoinette and her team, and look around, you should plan a trip soon!  Oh my, you will want everything you see.  If you like the children stamps with huge eyes, you'll be in stamper's heaven!  The Inspired Stamps Blog is fun to visit, as well.  There is quite often a contest or give-a-way going on, as well as regular challenges!

Okay, NOW I'm off to the post office :)

Have a great day, and thanks again for dropping by to visit!

Hugs and blessings,
Patti J.
