Allsorts Challenge 436

It is saturday again and that can only mean the start of the new challenge over at Allsorts.  This week my lovely teamie Mervi is the host and she has chosen
Trees & Leaves
Check out what my lovely teamies have to share with you here along with all the challenge details.
I love this time of year when all the leaves are changing colour to all the beautiful reds, golds l just think they are stunning - picking up the fallen leaves is a very different matter. This year l am going to bag the leaves for leaf mould and l have plenty of trees in my garden that are currently shedding their leaves.
We are very lucky to live in the countryside and often see dear in the woodlands over the road and sometimes even running across the road which can be a bit scary.
So here is my offering for this week.


All Stamps by Inkylicious
Distress & adirondak inks
glamour dust

Have a good weekend, enjoy crafting and hopefully some outdoor time to see those stunning trees that are all around us :)
Hope to see you over on the challenge x Susan x

One lucky winner using a Penny Black stamp will be chosen to be a Guest Designer on a future challenge.
Lots of options for this challenge - animals, scenes or floral.


Stamps Penny Black 4200K Berry Wreath,
30-057 Winter Whites and Greens
Glamour Dust, stickles,
Ribbon & bells
Red embossing powder

We have been generously sponsored by....



I stamped the wreath on the base card and then again on a spare piece of card in a sparkly red embossing powder - l then cut it out and attached it over the base card. The cones were stamped in the corner and glitter added, a bit of ribbon and bells and job done. A fairly quick card and it does look better IRL.

Thank you for stopping by and for your comments x Susan x
