After making snowbanks on my last card, I decided to back up the season a bit from winter to Fall. I've made another card for the Hope You Can Cling To challenges on Splitcoaststampers-HYCCT1422. The challenge is: SHOW ME THE LOVE--Create a project showing the love without putting the sentiment "I Love You" on the front cover. Most, but not all, crafters showed a cute couple--some people or animals or just whatever, (I probably should have) hearts, etc. on their card but I went with Thanksgiving which is a wonderful time to show that you love someone. At least, I think of this as a Thanksgiving card and the sentiment does show love and thankfulness for someone.
I made the card 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 because the stamp was rather large.
I will enter this card into the challenge at Party Time Tuesdays challenge PTT #186-Anything Goes.
Also, entering here: Addicted to Stamps and More-Challenge #118/Holiday
Another wonderful challenge to enter: Stampin' Royalty-Anything Goes-#251

For my faithful readers, would you like to win this die cut from Spellbinders? It is called Garden Gate. It's one of Spellbinders Die D-Lites. I haven't used one but Hobby Lobby sells them now so I'm sure I will be purchasing them. I'll pick a random winner from the comments on Monday, 10/27/14 and post the winner.

The Journey is the Start
I love this card Benzie. It's bright it's colorful and it's the perfect example of fall. Just beautiful.
I have several of the gate dies and I love using them. - Jim
Hi, Miss Benzi! Another gorgeously colored card! I recognized the style of the HC image, but did not recognize the image itself, so that is a new one for me. I especially like that you created a square card base, and then used a rectangle shape to showcase the masterpiece portion! Beautiful!
I have not see the SB gate before. We are getting a Hobby Lobby across the county (about 20 miles away). It might open early next year! hugs, de
Simple and Wonderful. Just gorgeous. Thanks for joining the Party at Party Time Tuesdays!
Oh I love your card. And how thoughtful to use the symbolism of the leaves as a gesture of love. Very nice Brenda. Love your coloring and of course thanks so much for the chance to win....I saw these new dies over there at Hobby Lobby just did not have time to explore them further. Hugs, my friend...joann
How did I miss this beauty! Gorgeous layout and gorgeous colors on the leaves.
We do not have a hobby Lobby here in RI, we have a Micheal's, but they seem to be scarce with paper crafting items. :) This gate die is gorgeous.
Perfect CAS design and I love your beautiful leaves Benzi! Our trees at the back of our garden are almost bare now, so not too many more of these to get cleared up :)
This definitely shows me the Love - along with the gorgeousness of color. And your sentiment has Love as well. I'd say you met the criteria very smartly with this beautiful leaf which celebrates a season of thankfulness as well as love. Good job! Our H/L is selling those DLite S/Bs too, just not a large selection. TFS & Hugs
A very beautiful card Brenda! I love the colors of the leaves with the blueberries and nice complement!!
Wow, stunning colours! Love your layout and sentiment. Thanks for joining us at ATSM this week. Monika
Such juicy, pretty colors together here!
