Autumn Chalkboard Card

Hello my bloggy pals! How was your week last week? Did you stop by to enjoy some of the fun new things I posted for Taylored Expressions? I hope you did! AND….I just got my design team preview for next month's release, and you won't be disappointed! My week was wonky. Crazy busy at work…. And, my husband had sinus surgery on Thursday, so it's been kinda stressful too. His surgery went fine and after a verrrryyyy long night that night, I have to say he is doing much better today. Yay! I hate it when he feels bad. 

Before we totally move on to Christmas projects, I thought I would share another Fall inspired card! I am still so crazy about the chalkboard trend, and I just got this awesome new stamp set from Hero Arts….and this idea came to me! Loved the Fall banner stamp the best from this set! It's called "Leaves Autumn." Hope you love it too! 

After I finish this post, I'm off to a card workshop to make Christmas cards with Richele and my friend JN. Looking forward to some girl time and some creative mojo. Have a great weekend!!

Here's a close up of my decorative grouping! A pretty burgundy button, some hand dyed ribbon and some Tim Holtz leaves…all tied up with some twine! I love doing stuff like this…and you know how much I love to dye ribbon!

That stamp is the bomb! Stamped on black linen paper with crisp white ink!

    Wow–looks like the comments got spammed! You’ve become international!
    Anyhoooo…what type of white ink are you using for your chalkboard cards? I have the hardest time with white inks staying crisp or defined without embossing (and I don’t always want to emboss). On your last card it looked turquoise (which was very pretty).

    Ooh, so pretty, Wanda! Love the combo of the chalkboard label with the fab fall colors! Your hand dyed ribbon is awesome. Really love the spray of leaves you created to hang from it!
    Sorry to hear about the surgery, but so glad the Mr. is starting to feel better!
