Fall Fun


I DID have fun making my entry for this week's CAS-ual Fridays challenge!  Because it's a CAS challenge, I decided to make a smaller, square card, 4 1/4" square, and use this Papertrey Ink Vintage Picnic set.  Simply stamped and colored with Letraset Flex Markers.

CAS-ual Fridays 71

And since I had this small scrapling left from cutting my card square, I made an even eensier one, this time using the images from Lawn Fawn's Happy Haunting set:

CAS-ual Fridays 71, scrapling

A scrapling, according to Shari Carroll, is 1 1/4" wide by 4 1/4" tall, the leftover paper after you've cut an A2 card (5 1/2" X 4 1/4") into a square 4 1/4" card.  My sentiment is from a Hero Arts Thanksgiving clear set, and I added some swirling winds with an embossing folder, Cuttlebug's D'Vine Swirls.

Love both of your ideas - the CAS pumpkin basket is very cosy, and the texture on that cute scrpaling is yummy. Just like swirling leaves, drifting from the tree ;)
