Gratitude - Sweet Stamp Shop - UWYH Challenge

Good morning! Another fun challenge card to share today:


I was excited to squeeze in a few minutes this past week to play along with the Use What You Have Challenge over at Sweet Stamp Shop:


I dug into THREE different stashes for this card! First up - the older paper stash:


Then the tangled mass of ribbon stash:


And the Stickles stash that I rarely use anymore:


I used the brand new Fall Gratitude stamp set (so happy this came in the mail in time for me to play with it before leaving on vacation!) I stamped it with MFT ink, then added the sentiment on a separate little banner. I pulled out some pattern paper from an older Crate Paper 6x6 paper pad (On Trend), and layered it all together.


Added some lace trim and ribbon from my stash, a tiny Tim Holtz paper clip, some Neat and Tangled sequins, and finished off by putting some Stickles on parts of the feathers.


{Sigh} A perfect fall card! The trees around our neck of the woods are turning yellow already! YIKES! I guess fall really is on the way! 

Thanks for stopping by today! Have a wonderful day!!!
