Hey there Friends, Can you believe it's November? I can't. The worst part is the darkness in the afternoon now that it's Standard time. But that's not why I'm posting. :)
I'm thrilled to be Guest Designing for Merry Monday 133. This week's challenge is "use creams, tans and browns and make a rustic card".
I'm calling mine Rustic Elegant because of the Gold Tinsel Embossing Powder. I'm happy with it even though I racked my brain to come up with a Christmas card with these colors! I'm lovin the wood grain paper! (American Crafts). Once I saw the Freshly Made sketch 160 it fell into place.
The other items I used are Bo Bunny paper (cream and tan), Oatmeal CS, PTI vellum, Hero Arts Sentiment stamp, MFT Stitched Circle Die, MFT fishtail flag die, SC wood stars.

Thanks for visiting!
