Welcome to Sparkle N Sprinkle Autumn Inspirations Blog Hop
Here in the north the days are getting shorter and the nights are getting cooler. Autumn is less then a month away, please join us with a stroll down the lane to enjoy the wonderful colors and celebrations that Autumn brings. If you strolled here by the way of the beautifully creative soulful Barbara Bruder, then you're in the right spot. If you'd like to start from the beginning and become eligible for the Grand Prize and five other mystery prizes, then click here to go to Sparkle N Sprinkle.
The first card I have created happens after the first frost, when the roses wilt slightly and turn a deeper shade. To make the Rose and Rose Buds I used Spellbinders Die Rose Creations S5-050 and Foliage S4-328.The lable is Fancy Tags One S4-235 and Petie Ovals S4-140. The back ground was cut from a Lace Die. The centers of the Roses are accented with Autumn Fire Glitter Tinsel , the lace is accented with Flaming Orange Glitter, Meadow Spark Glitter and Bridal Glitter. The sentiment is embossed with Bullfrog Embossing Powder. The complete recipe for this card can be found here.
The next card I created is for Halloween even though the days and nights might be getting cooler Nikki is still HOT! This is just a fun card. I picked the Bubbling Caldron , Nikki Witch Diva and the sentiment I'm Still Hot!, colored with Copics added a few die cut flames and glitters to highlight, embossed the sentiment with Jazzy Orange Embossing Powder EP272. The complete recipe for this card can be found here.
My last card is a reminder to be thankful and all pumpkins are not Orange.
To create this card I used Spellbinders Pumpkin and Maple Leaf Dies. Each Pumpkin has a different treatment. The largest has subtle veining made with Memento New Sprout Ink 99618 and sentiment "You're always in my thoughts" from the new stamp set Thoughtful Frames 436. The medium Pumpkin's sentiment Happy Thanksgiving is embossed with Harvest Nights Embossing Powder. The small Pumpkin is completely covered with Harvest Nights Embossing Powder. For the right amount of bling I added a little Autumn Medley Glitter. The complete recipe for this card can be found here in the card gallery at Sparkle N Sprinkle.

Wow! Such a remarkable collection of Autumn cards! Love each one with its pretty Fall colors, textures. They are all so HAPPY that it makes me long for those cooler days. In the meantime, cards like yours will suffice. Beautiful cards, Linda! Thanks!
I'm with Donna, WOW! One is better than the next! The flower on the first card is amazing! Using that grass punch for flames?! Ack! Fantastic! And the glittery goodness invokes the fall season on the third to perfection!
Love the way you put all the elements together in the Diva I'm sill Hot card!! Love it!!
What a great array of cards. My fav by far is the first card. WOW. I also love the grass punch used for flames. How cool is that. And the 3rd card is gorgeous with the glitter and the leaves.
Well it's too hard to pick a favorite, as they are all so clever! I love the elegant trellised rose, the flames in the second and everything in the third - just awesome!
The roses on the trellis is absolutely gorgeous and so elegant. I can almost smell them. Beautiful card!
Love the roses! All of your cards are great but the roses is my fav!
The roses look so real, I can all most feel the heat from the flames, and your pumpkins make me feel the fall weather. Nice job.
I can just imagine the age of that hot witch! Too cute.
Hands down - these are all just stunning!!! A nice mix of elegance and fun in your cards.... Can't decide which is my favorite - so I choose all 3 LOL. Brenda S

Well, Wow just won't do it Linda. These are all so wonderful and diverse. Love the punch out on the first (and the roses)--so elegant. The Nikki card is too cool (lol). I've never seen that fire punch (is it a punch or die?). Great combo of stamps and elements. And the pumpkin card is outstanding. Kudos.

Love your cards. First one is beautiful.
What a wonderful array of Autumn cards you made. All are so beautiful. And, the roses one is just gorgeous.
Love the diversity of the cards you've posted for the SNS Blog Hop. They're really great! But, like so many of the others, the Rose Trellis is absolutely elegant. And, even though you made it for Autumn, the applications for this card are endless. Thank you so much.
Your cards are so unique and creative. I did love the witch and the sentiment. I am just getting started with the embossing folders and such. Your background on the card with the leaves really really stood out to me. Thank you.
Wow, elegant, funny and colorful all at once. Lovely cards and the hot witch is a hoot!
Wow! Each of these cards are wonderful and so different from the others. I really like the rose and trellis card the best.
Each card is beautiful but I really really loved the trellis card and am planning on trying to do one! thank you for sharing and giving us the chance to win!

Your first card is absolutely outstanding. The roses & the lace are lovely. I also love the shape. I like the flames on your Halloween card. The colors on your third card are very bright & cheery.
Three beautiful cards! The lace card with the glittered background it my favorite, particularly with the rose. Absolutely stunning!
Beautiful cards. Funny you should mention that all pumpkins are not orange, first time I saw a cream colored pumpkin was last year. Are there other colors of pumpkins?
