Goodbye Summer?

Morning all!
Firstly may I say that 10 years on, 9/11 is still fresh in my memory & my thoughts & prayers are with all those who were affected by the  terrible events of that day!

Now, on a cheerier note!
I'm off out for lunch later, with my recently married niece.
I'm looking forward to hearing hear all about the honeymoon &
the other woman who muscled in on it! 
(Irene that is!)
Before I go I better share with you this weeks card for 
The Crafty Pad Designs
This weeks challenge #138 is Goodbye Summer!
We want to see you use Autunal colours on your project!
Brown, Orange, Gold, whatever says Autumn to you!

Here's my card!


The image we have all used this week is Jeremy Popping Round!


He's such a cute little guy isn't he!
I used a square card base, coloured him up with Promarkers
& matted & layered some Papermania papers for my layout!



I had a little attempt at making some flowers using my Tim Holtz die
(don't laugh)
I used two different pieces of thick tissue paper with a brad at the centre
& added a bit of ribbon detail

  4. A beautiful autumnal card Dawn. I must say as much as I love the sun, Autumn is my most favourite season. The colours are incredible and I love hunkering down all warm and snuggly in bed when a big storm is going on outside. Stunning card. Lee xx
