Fall Card?

OK....I'm not too thrilled with this card today....I guess you don't always like your own work right? Anyways, I did this for the challenge over at Operation Write Home. We were to make a Fall Thank You Card. I'm not sure if my card is really considered a fall themed one or not...that was my intention,I assure you....I don't think I pulled it off....like I said,I'm not that crazy about it,LOL!!!! My coloring wasn't the best....I know ;) thanks for stopping by and have a great day;)

Hi Holley, Your card is beautiful! Sometimes the simplest thing can give us the hardest time ;) Some of mine I have to leave on my desk for a few days before I decide they're alright. Thanks for playing along with us at Operation Write Home ~

You are so funny, "it comes with a sample". I think it turned out great. We all have those cards we're not too excited about, I've had my share.

Oh Holley! You are being too critical, though I've done the same thing. I like the card, and indeed it is fall themed! I think this is the 2nd card in a row without sponging!!! ~Robin

You're a fabulous card maker and this is one beautiful card Holley! Love the technique and look of it. Now can I afford another stamp set to go with the one you already sold me. LOL! Send me an invoice and we'll say yes! Oh and I want the card too!

I think you are just having one of those days because this card is BEAUTIFUL. If it isn't pretty then I need to stop making cards because it's evident I don't know what pretty is....This card is no different...I always enjoy your creations and getting inspiration from you. If you don't think this is pretty then don't stop by my blog because you will REALLY be disappointed.
