CCC #65

Are you ready for a new Cue Card from CASology?
This week's cue is:



Another fitting prompt for this time of the year.
This weekend is the Canadian Thanksgiving and I am heading to the cottage at the lake for a Thanksgiving feast.  While the leaves in the city are just starting to turn I know that when I get up there there will be a sea of yellow, orange and red! A lot still on the trees but many many more on the ground, likely covering the road on the way in.

So when I think of crisp I think of the sound of the leaves under my feet at the cottage on Thanksgiving.

I used Lawn Fawn's Into The Woods for my card, colouring the leaves in with Copics.

This really says "fall" to me. Love the focus of the leaves, with just a bit of a tall tree trunk. Another wonderful card! Bev

Fabulous CAS design! Fall is my favorite season and your card reminds me of those wonderful moments out walking in the leaves.

Kim Heggins said...

Amazing, amazing, amazing! Not sure how a tree trunk and few brightly colored fall leaves can make you feel the "crispness" in the air but your card has done that...just wonderful.

Tracey, as soon as I saw your card it made me think of "The Giving Tree" by Shel Silverstein! I love the simple, clean layout of your card...brilliant take on the cue!
