OWH Mid Week Throwdown Challenge - Autumn

This week's  OWH Midweek Throwdown Challenge  is Autumn.  If you saw my OWH Thanksgiving card you will notice that I'm stuck on turquoise and copper for fall.  Maybe that's because while I am walking the dog I'm looking up and seeing the leaves changing color against that beautiful blue sky!  Or maybe just because I think its a striking color combination!  Whatever works right?

I used a few products that I've had on hand that I finally got to put to good use!  I bought the stamp set about a month ago - it's on sale at Just Rite for $5.  I bought the Spellbinders Labels 21 I don't remember when.  I thought they were a neat shape, but hadn't come up with any clever way to put them to use.  Don't you hate when you buy something and it goes unused?  Glad I don't have to say that about these two any more!

I wrapped some twine around the card base to anchor the tags so they look tied down.  I thought the button looked cute but didn't want to put string through it - I thought it would take away from the sentiment - so I stuck some tiny little gems in the button holes.  OK so it was just another excuse to put a little glam on my card!!  I also used metallic paper for the leaf, button and blue tag.  Hope you like it!

PS Thanks to everyone who left me a sweet comment on my "Princess" - Anything But Glitter card.  Since I got a good response I am in the process of making 20 more (as promised).   I'm working assembly style - cutting each element one at a time.  Thanks alot of cranking through the old die cut machine, but it's worth it!
