CD SUNDAY CHALLENGE

This week's CD Sunday Challenge is...Autumn Splendour
This is my entry


The oval background is from Peerless Designs Secret Garden CD and the dahlia is from my
Floral Sketchbook 1 Digikit (coloured digitally see how here).
The beige leafy background is from Joanna Sheen Thomas Kincade CD, decoupaged in CAP2.
The oval rope border is one of CAP2's brushes and the bow from one of the Daisytrail Digikits.
The knotted border is from Pam LeFors as is the pin which has had the middle removed and a small dahlia placed on the pin head.
I should add that dahlias are late flowering plants and so overlap into autumn!

  5. What a great card Caroline. There is so much to look at and you are so expert with all these digital images. The Dahlia is beautiful - one of my favourite flowers. They last so long indoors.

  7. A gorgeous card Caroline, I love the Daliha. We grew these in our garden for years then lost all of the bulbs and never replaced them. Maybe I should think of getting some more. Thanks for joining in at CD Sunday this week.
