I'm so glad to have this card to post. You would not believe all that happened as I was making it. I won't go into details as I don't want to start to boo-hoo. LOL This card was completely finished and with a totally different look...and one I liked...but, things went downhill from there. O.K., in the end, I'm happy with it.
I am using the Sketch Challenge 354 on Splitcoaststampers. I really love the rust color cardstock I used and think it works so well in the Autumn creations. I embossed my panel (recipe below), colored my mums and cut a die cut swirl. The image is from Mark's Finest Papers and the set is Thankful Mums and Pumpkins.

I can't believe that things didn't go smoothly with this card, Benzi. It looks so beautiful!! What could go wrong?? (Ha, I know there are bungles lurking around every turn when you set out to make a card.) The colors and layout are just perfect. Beautiful coloring, too!! I *love* how it turned out--so glad you do, too. :)

What an elegant card! The mum is beautiful and I love that embossed panel. I'll have to look for that folder. I love the colors here too. Very elegant and classy!
Ah, this must be the 'orange' cardstock of which you mentioned in my post recently. ;) I would never label it so, I can see how rusty it is! And it looks great embossed like you did, and with that gorgeous mum.
Very pretty card. Love the red embossed paper. Thanks for joining our challenge. I hope you will try Sweet Stamps images sometime.
