Autumn Birthday

I love how the new Mat Stack Die 3 from PTI fits so many of their images perfectly! Here I have used it with Round and Round, last year's anniversary set.I took my color inspiration from their autumn DP, though I wound up not using it. I have also discovered that, while it doesn't look as good as when you stamp with an ink pad, you can use markers on clear stamps; you just have to huff and puff like you're blowing down that little pig's brick house. Frame image is stamped with Cajun Craze, one of SU's new colors. I was going to use it for the card base too, but wound up with Pumpkin Pie instead for some reason. Marker colors are Chocolate Chip, Ruby Red, Really Rust, More Mustard, and Pumpkin Pie. Again, I punched out the image and popped it up. Ribbon is PTI Summer Sunrise, buckle is SU Hodgepodge Hardware. I Cuttlebugged the Dark Chocolate layer with the Branches folder. Again, the sent. from Round and Round fit perfectly in the little window of the frame image. I hope you've enjoyed looking at the card and that you get some craft time in today. See ya later!
