COLOURS OF AUTUMN AT ALLSORTS PLUS A FESTIVE MAKE

 Today is the start of our new challenge at
the theme is
COLOURS OF AUTUMN
for my card I have used an Autumnal kit that I purchased some time ago but never used the kit is full of so many beautiful Autumnal card and pictures so I thought this would be a good time to use them I added a bow, punched butterflies and some flower pearls I stamped the sentiment.



Before I tell you about this weeks prize I need to let you know that next Saturday we are having a bit of a celebration as it will be our 700th challenge. Please grab our special logo above and share to help spread the word.

Now for this weeks prize in keeping with the theme the lovely Acorn Collage stamp set from AALL and Create.

For my next card I have used one of my beloved Tilda stamps this is the older style when they were larger than the new stamps, these are the ones I fell in love with and it has been such fun to be able to resurrect these stamps and while I am having so many problems with my internet connection I have been using them quite a bit making cards so please keep watch for more of the 'old' Tilda.  

I have gone 'off piste' with the colours of this one and used yellow and black I actually like it I hope that you do as well, I coloured Christmas Angel Tilda with a mix of markers I embossed the base card with a festive folder and then used some dies and added a sentiment and gems.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:


Finally I would like to introduce you to Bruce my little brothers Frenchie, he is a big boy and so docile and loveable but he is a little bit greedy, lol, last month I 'dog' sat him while my bro and wife went on holiday I also have him again this weekend while they have gone away for a couple of days, he is a snorer but it is lovely having a doggie with me again.
My Jess has been 'adopted' by my brother Colin she was with my mum and bro for the last few years  my mum wanted Jess with her to make her feel safe and now she  is Colin's shadow, I did bring her over to the bungalow but she would not settle and was happy when I took her back 'home' Colin spoils her and I know he would be lost without her I still see her everyday and take her for walks but I am constantly thinking about how things have changed, I am so sad, but I am spoiling Bruce 


Once again I want to thank you so much for popping by to give me your feedback on my posts and show your support I hope that you will come join us this week
hugs

I didn't realise Jess had 'moved', you must miss her dreadfully but nice you get Bruce to spend time with you.

I adore the rich coloured focal image of the Autumnal card and the other is very sweet.

Two elegant cards Lorraine, the first one looks gorgeous with the oranges and the butterflies and the Christmas one is really unusual in yellow and black, but so pretty! Great colouring as always!
Bruce is adorable, even if he seems a bit sad in the photo. Sorry that Jessie choose your brother. Perhaps you could adopt a little rescued doggie, there are so much that wait for a new home and friends...
Have a lovely weekend

Ellibelle said...

Two beautiful creations here Lorraine, especially loving the gorgeous fall themed card with those pretty colors and wonderful sketch, not to forget the GORGEOUS image, but the angel card is so cute and beautiful dies used.
Bruce is so cute and I am sure he is totally enjoying being spoiled by you!

I am so sorry to hear that you are still so sad, but don't animals give you a lovely boost and an excuse to get outside? We have been having some wonderful sunny and mild autumn days recently. The sunshine always cheers me up. Thanks for your lovely comments yesterday. Your cards are gorgeous. I think the first one is my favourite, it is those colours, stunning xx
