Not a Christmas card in sight.....

.....but I do still have some to show you yet LOL.
Good morning everyone, what a lovely Autumn morning it is too with hazy sunshine and that tiny nip in the air. I am finally comfortable with the temperature and I hope fervently that we do not get the temperatures promised for next week!
Anyhow, onto my cards which I have made using some of my Autumn photographs.





For the leaves card I created the leaf border in SCAL and cut it, and the single leaves, out on the Cricut. I opened all of the photographs in PSP and added borders, and in the case of the leaves card I also added the caption. For the other three cards I printed out larger photographs on plain paper for the backgrounds. The two stamps used are Hero Arts and the embossing powder is Papermania copper.
I am quite pleased with the end results but there is always room for improvement :o)

Oh these are lovely, Jackie, very nice designs indeed. Really like the leaves you added on the first card, and the way you 'spotlighted' part of the scene in the other 3.

thanks for dropping by my blog to say Hi! I'm not too bad, thanks, was expecting to be unwell today as I went out the other night (usually get quite a kickback with the M.E.) but looks like I got away lightly (big grin, lol). I know what you mean about blog hops, they do take a while to get round. I love being part of the DT in one though, so much fun! Enjoy your weekend. CoB

Jackie, these are absolutely amazing! I just love when you use your fantastic pics. They are so beautiful and when you showcase them like this they are awesome! I love them all, just gorgeous! If I had to choose a favorite, it would be tough! But I think it would be the one of the pond and the pussy willow reed, lovely! Or, maybe the pine cones - or maybe the leaves. . . Big hugs, J:)
