CCMC218

Well, I felt so welcomed at the Create with Connie and Mary challenge last week that I decided to enter another challenge this week!

This week's challenge is to create a card with lucky limeade, rich razzleberry and tangerine tango.



What lovely fall colours! As Canadian thanksgiving is a few weeks away, this theme sprang to mind. I hopped down to the basement crafting area, and came up with this layout. I love the simplicity of the geometric shapes against each other. And do I ever love brads - popping out some accent colour.

Thanks for looking, and for all the friends at Create with Connie and Mary - thanks for the inspiration and camaraderie! If you're ever on Vancouver Island... come on by!

    1. Well, you're welcome any time! I wasn't sure about the circle on the window frame, at first, but I think it works. The brads help (repeating the circle motif, maybe?). Love your site! Thanks for the inspiration!
