Autumn Colours

I had a new home card to make and managed to fit in some Autumn colours as there's several challenges running this theme at the moment. It hasn't photographed too well - the red leaves are not as overpowering in real-life!

I started with a 6x6 Kraft card blank which I stamped using a Papermania Square Urban All Aboard Postmark Stamp and embossed with Stampendous Gold powder. The birdhouse image is Hot Off The Press and was a freebie from Simply Cards & Papercraft mag and was embossed to match the background then cut with a Spellbinders Timeless Rectangle.  Corner flourish is also by Spellbinders: D-Lites Fantastic Flourish Two. The leaves are a mixture of Cheery Lynn Ivy Strip die and Woodware Birch Leaf punch. I added gold ribbon and red gems to finish off.

I'd like to enter the following challenges:

Butterfly Birthday

Yes, I know, Lili of the Valley again but I just can’t resist. I also wanted to enter the last ever Lili’s Little Fairies Challenge. I’ve enjoyed entering the challenges over the summer months and hope to join in with the new challenge blog.

So, on to my card. I used a 6 x 6 Kraft card blank and layered two different Vintage Rose DPs (by Craftworks) onto Kraft card. Edges have been inked with Memento Rich Cocoa. The LOTV image is one of the older Cute Squares, cut with a plain circle die and matted onto Spellbinders Butterflies Circle. Gems and ribbon from stash and the sweet butterfly stopwatch embellishment is from The Range. The sentiment is by Hot Off the Press and was a recent magazine freebie.

I would like to enter the following challenge:
