Believe it or not, I'm ahead of schedule because I'm typing this on Sunday evening even though the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop isn't until Tuesday, the 25th. However, I will be enroute bright and early to Boston for my week with girlfriends having fun and sightseeing. Of course, we'll be on the hunt for the best Boston Cream Pie! Anyway, back to the Blog Hop. Here's the fabulous inspiration image as referenced on PTI's blog. If this doesn't put you in the Fall spirit, I don't know what will.
Since I've got a few more things to accomplish before my trip, I'll get on with sharing my card. In case you're wondering, I did add some Dark Chocolate and Summer Sunrise stripes to this Autumn Chicken Scratch paper and framed it using the Cover Plate: Pretty Frame.
While I'm relaxing in our rental, I hope to check out the hop to see what others created. Have a great week, everyone!
Thank you for stopping by, and I really do appreciate your comments!
