Beautiful Fall Days from The Cutting Cafe


WooHoo! After a couple of unseasonable days of rain it's going to be a gorgeous day! DH informed me we were going to "do something" today (translation: I won't be crafting and he won't be practicing the piano) so we're off to the city! October weather is BEAUTIFUL in San Francisco (much better than June or July) so I'm happy as a clam. Oh Oh! No blog post yesterday and I've been working on DT stuff all week so what's a girl to do? Hit my Cutting Cafe files of course, for a quick easy card that looks like it took far longer than it did to make. I printed the Autumn Days printable stamp set on kraft paper in brown (I'm SOOOO lovin' that I can do that now), cut the background collage out, matted it in plaid, cut and embossed a Cuttlebug maple leaf, used my petite scalloped circle Nesties to cut out the sentiment, tied a big bow, added some mini skittles and I WAS DONE! Now it's off to the shower. You've got to stop by The Cutting Cafe to see what Regina's been up to. Just wait 'til you see the new All About Christmas set. What fun stuff! TTYL xxD

  2. Another great card Donna! Enjoy your day in the city. With us having record high temps for the last week or so (95+) we are expecting a cold front tonight which will be a welcome change.

  3. Donna I love your work. I look at your site so much that now my kids call themselves Popsicle Toes when it is cold at night. I hope they are as talented as you are when they grow up.
