Autumn Blessings


     Hi everyone!  We're continuing our biweekly challenge at Shining the Light with Our Daily Bread Designs.  We want you to make a card or project inspired by Ecclesiastes 3:1, "For everything there is a season and a time for every purpose under heaven."
ODBD, Autumn Blessings, Elegant Oval dies, designer Linda Carson
     Again I chose to make a fall card using the Autumn Blessings set.  This set does come with coordinating dies but for some odd reason I don't have them.  I had to fussy cut the leaves and acorns.  The sentiment uses an Elegant Oval die.
     The starburst was made using a Silhouette.  The rays are flush on the card.  Papers by Authentique.
     Please visit the other designers on the Challenge Team for more inspiration. 

 
Cheryl Scrivens,   Diana Nguyen, 
  DJ Rants,  Elizabeth Whisson,  Robin Clendenning
 

   To see all the projects created for ODBDSLC216, to join the challenge and see the rules click here. You have until November 2nd at 8:00pm EDT to enter.
     Hope you'll join us!  Have a wonderful day!

    I continue to pray you are not in pain Linda!! If you are, your card sure does not show it with your beautiful creation!! I so love your use of the sunburst and all those gorgeous papers. I have to say though, your coloring of the acorn and leaves is exquisitely done. Gorgeous work my friend!
    hugs,
    Chris

    Oh, Linda, this is a gorgeous card, my friend! I LOVE the autumn theme you chose and how beautifully your leaves and acorns are colors! I just love the layout with the sunburst using these beautiful papers! And the raffia adds such a country feel to it...and so beautifully staged for your photo! Stunning card, my sweet friend, and I'm praying that you have a pain-free day and find joy in today! Hugs, sweet friend!

    Oh what a beautiful card for fall! You outdid yourself on this one! The sentiment makes me sad, but I enjoy a good cry now and then! :-)

    Oh, my gosh, this is so beautiful, Linda! I honestly thought the acorns and leaves were 3-D embellishments at first. That's how amazing your coloring is. Love the autumn rays and colors. Outstanding!
