We have sunshine today! We've had several days of rain due to Hurricane Jova which hit the west coast of Mexico near the Puerto Vallarta area. There are mountains between the coast and Chapala so we are pretty well protected from hurricanes (PTL!) but we did get lots of rain (which was needed, by the way, because our normal rainfall for the year was about 8 inches low).
The colors on my card didn't photograph well -- what looks to be blue is actually a sage green. The papers that I have used come from an older Stampin' Up Designers Paper pack titled Autumn Vine. Card stock is also from SU, More Mustard and Really Rust.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
Dutch Dare Card Challenges #134 - SketchAnnaBelle Stamps - Say It With Embellished Corners
MelJens Designs #80 - Use a Ribbon
Stampin' B's - Use a Bird
Papertake Weekly - Use 3 Shapes (rectangles, ovals, circles)

Delightful Challenges - Fall Colours
Stamps: See D's Nightingale & Gina K. Designs Fanciful Tags
Dies: ProvoCraft Corner Die and Spellbinders Large Classic Ovals
Embellishments: Metal Stickers Nailheads, Ribbon, and Buttons
Didn't get out a whole lot this week due to the rain but I was able to follow along with the Flourishes new releases and play in their challenges. I'll do a post tomorrow and show you what I created; keeping my fingers crossed to win a new stamp set!!

Hi Betty
This is such a sweet card. I never thought of putting the oval on the angle. Good thinking!!!
Glad you aren't getting lousy weather.
After almost 2 months of holidaying I am finding it hard to get back in the routine. Oh well it will come.
