Seize the Birthday Challenge - Fall Items

This is the final challenge of 2023.  [Wowza but this year flew by!]  

Here is my card for this challenge;

I was going through my "stuff", and came across this burlap.  I totally love the texture this creates on a card.  Sometimes it does pay to go through your stash...

I'm not sure who the dies are from, but I cut the leaf from a stashed alcohol inked panel, and the hearts from some shiny gold card stock.  The happy birthday [computer generated] is gold foiled - boy that product really doesn't like to photograph.  It's pretty in real life.

Okay, your turn!  We hope you join in our last 2023 challenge over at Seize the Birthday.  While the fall items is optional, being a birthday card is not.



Thanks for stopping by~
