Shakin' all Over and Fallin' for You...

ETA. I think this card fits perfectly with this weeks 

Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger - Enthralled with Fall (see photo inspiration below)

You can play along til October 27th!

Thought I'd turn this weeks CAS(E) this Sketch into an Fall (Autumn!) leaf shaker card and play along with CASual Fridays Fall Colours & a Leaf, and CASolgy Autumn too.  The leaves were created by spraying a sheet of watercolour paper with water and a combination of red, orange, yellow, gold & brown mists. Once this was dry, the sheet was stamped with The Alley Way Stamps It's Fall About You leaf and fussy cut - the best leaves had more than one colour on them.  The shaker was created by die cutting with Lil Inkers Stitched Rectangle mats and edging the back of this with two layers of foam tape, sandwiching a spare piece of clear plastic packaging between the back of the cardstock and the first layer of foam tape.  Dropping in a handful of leaves, and sealing up the shaker against the front of the card.  The sentiment was created using Paper Smooches Graffiti, Alphadot and Nutty for You sentiment, stamped in Cup O' Joe on a fishtail flag diecut.

She's Apples...

This week over at I Spy Sketches it's Free for all Friday - so you can choose any of their past fab sketches for your card, and I couldn't go past this one!

I just LOVE these The Alley Way Stamps It's Fall About You apples in gingham!  Can't get enough of the stitching line in Ghoul-Friend either - makes stitching a breeze!  Hopefully this Alphabet Soup sentiment translates around the world! Here in Australia it means All is well!

Hope all is well with you!

A Colour Q Paper Play The Alley Way...

This weeks Colour Q colours are just too perfect for a Fall card, and this gorgeous Paper Players sketch was perfect for my falling leaves!  This card was created by applying Rich Razzleberry, Pumpkin Pie and Tangerine Tango (in lieu of Dusty Durango!) to my clear stamping block, spritzing it with Gold Glimmermist and stamping the block onto watercolour paper.  I then stamped these gorgeous new The Alley Way Stamps It's Fall About You maple leaves in Chocolate Chip (in lieu of Soft Suede) and fussy cut them out of the watercolour paper.  The sentiment was created using Alphabet Soup, Chatterbox and Jibber Jabber.
