Post Holiday Blues

I hate coming back from my holidays. The only thing that makes it bareable is our gorgeous four legged furball. Its cold, dismal and only 3 pays until Christmas. Enough bleating Mrs!

I did get itchy fingers whilst away and after a week looking at my stash and a few little purchases I set to doing something. I had do make an Autumn card for the 52 card challenge and my cardmaking magazine was still being flicked through when I noticed the centre page digi images. loads of Autumness waiting to be inked. I'd just bought the Autumn Promarkers too so it seemed rude to not have a play. Now please forgive my clumsy colouring, I am very new to colouring in - lol!!!!! haven't really done much since I was about 8. I see these little digi images every month but until now have never had an urge to do anything with them so I was determined whatever my efforts, they would end up on a card.

The prompts for this were:- Twine/Kraft/Autumn so full marks for me!

I decided the kraft was a little dull so I put it through my BigShot along with a Creative Expressions mask and then while it was still on the card, spritzed it with Worn Leather Dylusion ink. I think it warms it up without overpowering it.

I've entered this into the Polka Doodles blog challenge, although with all the talent over there I don't hold much hope but I was always brought up to believe it's the taking part that matters.
