Autumn Colours WOJ

This week's WOJ challenge is to use Autumn colours. I love the browns, greens, reds, oranges and yellows of autumn and tend to use them alot on my cards. I have chosen Willow with Umbrella as it does rain alot in Autumn (well it is this autumn!!) and coloured her using my acqua promarkers. The dp is Basic Grey's Mellow and the the cardstock is from my stash. The ochre embossed card is by Coredinations and I have distressed the surface a little. I added ribbon, Prima flowers, brads and gems from my stash.
Its quite a simple card but not very much time to craft between varnishing the woodwork in my new craft room and nursing Ellie.


Hope you like it.
