Fall Card - Natures Harvest

It is officially fall and the trees here are definitely changing!  We were in New Brunswick for a week and returned home last week.  In NB they have some large Maples trees that were already starting to change.

I am used to the wide variety of fall colours from the Eastern part of the country and the colours here in Alberta are not as bold and vivid.  Here is a photo of a Maple tree with a number of different coloured leaves in NB near my sister in laws house.


I held a Fall card class recently and this is one of my cards using the Nature's Harvest Bundle.  This card is an angled card design.  I saved the pieces I cut off and made another card which I will share in a future post.

Broadway Bound Birthday

 Another of my September birthdays!  I made a gift card holder for my nephew.  The DSP that I used is retired but it was suitable for a male themed card.


Here is the inside with the pocket for the gift card.
