Happy Fall Ya'll Challenge =)

First off, congrats to all the winners from the last challenge, you are simply amazing. 

There were some really wonderful submissions =)

Now onto my inspiration submission for our current challenge "Happy Fall Ya'll". This is my favourite time of year, without a doubt. I do not mind the sun but I love the sun when it is a little crisper outside and not so hot.... I squealed like a little girl when I saw this digital stamp and just {HAD} to colour it. As you can see from my fellow team mates, it was a popular choice and you can see why! =)

The stamp is Pumpkin Patch Emma and you can find her here!

Hole in One Hal....... =)

So as many of you know, I have an issue with men's cards, always have and probably always will. Unfortunately, I do not find them interesting to make because you can not embellish them like you can a female's card. I cringe when I have to make a boy's card because I never know what I am going to do UNTIL I saw this video on YouTube by Kimberly Brown, using an image from Dr. Digi. She is amazing with her Letraset Promarkers. If you ever get a chance, check her out here....

So when I saw the image she was colouring I immediately decided to check out Dr. Digi to see what they have. Well, oh my goodness, they have amazing digital stamps. The one I chose is Hole in One Hal and you can find him here......

Here is the finished card.
