fall is the best

Went out this past week to find my favourite Yankee Candles for fall- Pumpkin Spice. Have been burning it off and on for the past 10 days I guess. It is beginning to feel like fall. The leaves on the trees have some changes and I love it all!! I am a fall girl!! It is my season that I find great delight in, which is ironic for a girl who doesn't really like change. Pulled out some cute patterned paper and these fall stamps that I had bought last year and went to creating this past week on my days off. So here are the two fall cards I did.

Patterned paper- KI, Swirl stamps-Autumn Leaves, Pumpkin and oval stamps - Amuse, Word stamps- Stamping Up. Cardstock- Sahara Sand, More Mustard, Cranberry Crisp- Stamping Up. Ink- Stampin Up Classic inks More mustard, Chocolate chip, True Thyme. Ribbon- SU True Thyme. Punch- Marvy. Other Circle Cutter.

Okay, so the trees in real life aren't this colour yet, I was imagining a later fall for this card. :) This card size is 4 1/2 x 4 1/4. Just something new for a change.

Patterned paper- KI, Cardstock- Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie, Sahara Sand, Whisper White- SU. Ink- Classic Ink SU Chocolate Chip. Stamps- Lovely as a Tree set-SU, Small Script- SU. Oval Punches- SU, Brad- unknown, Other Colored the tree with my Twinkling H2O's.

Seattle

I love Seattle. There is something in the air that is addicting. In my nine years here in the Northwest my love has only grown for this city. To my great excitement A new show came on TV two and a half years ago called Grey's Anatomy. Imagine the pleased look on my face when during the early episodes I saw the city line of Seattle on TV. In every episode I would look for that glimpse into the city. In my opinion it really has the most gorgeous skyline at night all lit up.

This past month I was just outside of Seattle in Lynnwood at a stamp shop where I saw this Ferry Boat Stamp!!

With great joy I purchased it, with the words of Dr. Derek Shepherd aka McDreamy from Grey's Anatomy echoing in my ears "I have this thing for ferry boats." It actually was in an episode way back in the first season, and repeated again in this past week's episode. I was so inspired to hear it again that I had to make this card. I used Twinkling H20's to add some color and sparkle. Here's a peak at the inside too.
