NBUS Guest Designer for September

This month I am so happy Darnell asked if I'd like to be guest designer. I'm honored and it's great to be diving into my crate rather small basket of never before used stuff! 

This embossing folder is by Sizzix and is a Texture Fade 3-D called Acorns. I thought it was perfect for fall and colored the leaves orange and green with a finger dauber and used brown for the acorns The sentiment is from an old retired wood mount stamp by Great Impressions that I cut part of the sentiment from and stamped it on a punched leaf die.

I'm going to start collecting highlighters. Mark my words.















Be kind to one another.

Congrats on being guest designer. Your card so reminds me of Indiana in the fall. That E/F is beautiful. I love the way you colored the background. FYI: I saw on facebook that Wishful Thinking in Nashville is planning to reopen in December at a new location.
