It's hard to believe, but yes, it is once again the first Friday of a new month and that means it's time to play with a new set of elements over on the Daring Cardmakers blog:
Lots of autumnal favourites here.
I had a flick through my more autumnal-coloured items and found some chipboard elements from Teresa Collins' Nine & Co. collection from this time last year. The colours were a bit sombre so my card didn't quite turn out as vibrant and happy as I usually like my cards to look.
I went with woodgrain, leaves, autumnal flora, and berries as my elements:
Paper: Crate Paper
Chipboard: Teresa Collins
Dies: MFT, Lil' Inker Designs
Stamp: Waltzing Mouse Stamps
Other: enamel dots, 3D foam tape
I thought the chipboard would make a nice accent around the circle aperture. It's hard to tell in the image but the enamel dots are also woodgrain enamel dots to complete the look. I did debate with using some Glossy Accents on the chipboard to lift the accented areas a bit, but my bottle of Glossy Accents is so old now that the tip isn't as fine as it once was and I could see "disaster waiting to happen" written all over that!
Don't forget to check out the much more vibrant and uplifting creations by my fellow team mates over on the blog!
Have a lovely weekend!

I love this card Nat, especially the way you've framed the aperture and put your sentiment across the middle - really lovely!
