Double D, Harvest Blessings And Give Thanks

Good Morning!

A brand new Challenge is underway at the Double D Challenge Blog, Harvest Blessings And Give Thanks.

Check out this beautiful Mood Board to inspire your creativity!

 
 
And here is my card:
 
 
I do love Fall.  I also love jars on cards.  Here I have collected a few of the most colorful acorns I have ever seen.  I used several Papertrey Ink products; Jar & Lid die, Just The Jar--Quart, stamp and dies, Friendship Jar Fall Fillers stamp and the Blessings die from Counting My Blessings set.  I also used the Poppystamps Verona Flourish die, it has the most beautiful leaves, which I cut out of Bronze Glitter Paper.  Spellbinders Classic Oval die.  
 
 

 
Wood Grain Designer Paper for my background.  Images colored with Copic Markers.  Fall Ribbon, Button and Twine for accents.  And for a glittery sparkle and shine I added Stickles in corresponding colors to my acorns.  Black Licorice ink. 
 
You have plenty of time to join in on the current Challenge.....hope to see you there!
 
Thanks for falling in.
 
Enjoy~~

  8. The caught my eye on the mood board, after the sentiment was the colorful acorns. Even before I scrolled down to see your card, I knew that you would be doing them. I was right! A very whimsical card with these very different colored acorns. Love the background that you created to put this wonderful, colorful jar of acorns on. Fabulous!

  16. Wow! you really captured the tiles on THIS inspiration board, Miss Donna! Those dancing acorns in your jar look like THEY were the inspiration for the inspiration board! Fantastic design - and so much fun in the process! We live in an oak hammock. The acorns have been dropping for the past week. On mornings like today when the humidity is lower, I open the back doors, and hear the acorns falling. Sometimes the squirrels bombard us with the acorns as we walk under the trees! LOL The barn/workshop has a metal roof, and it sometimes sounds like a machine gun firing when a gentle wind blows through the trees. The overhanging branches drop the acorns onto the roof! LOUD! Well, back to your adorable card - I like the dancing colored acorns! They have decorated themselves for Halloween, and kept their costumes on, right? LOL happy weekend! hugs, de
