Hello Bloggers, are you all having a good week, do hope so.
I have made this for my crafty friend Louise its her Birthday today, she loves everything Autumn especially the colours, loves trees and owls and buttons so I knew that I had to include them somewhere, I think it is quite a fitting card for her.
5 of us crafty girls have all met up for coffee this morning, we have had so many giggles and such a good time hope you enjoyed it Birthday girl, I certainly did.
Dont forget you still have time to go with the Sir Stampalot Challenge
Autumn Breezes a button and a bow.

I have used Sizzix embossing folder fall set. and coloured the raised embossing with distress inks it took a while but I think it was worth it. I have used SU linen thread to make the scalloped edge on the side.
