L'autunno si avvicina, anche se qui sembra ancora estate... così ho usato il giallo e l'arancione, che per me sono colori abbastanza autunnali. Il layer principale è un cartoncino da acquerello ruvido e poroso, molto pesante e molto vecchio (ho da parte un mazzetto di questi cartoncini da una ventina di anni!). A causa dell'età, questi cartoncini sono diventati beige, così sono perfetti per i progetti vintage o per essere colorati nelle tonalità del giallo, come in questo caso.
L'ho embossato con una EF Spellbinder e l'ho colorato con il D.I. Fossilized Amber.La striscia a lato è un avanzo di vellum arancione embossato con una cartella da embossing Creative Expression. Mi piace l'effetto del vellum embossato, perchè crea delle linee bianche!
Ho ricoperto il grande sentiment con il glitter. Le farfalline sono tagliate con un punch da piccolissimi avanzi di una cartellina di manila usata, così come il layer sottostante.
Il fiore a stella tridimensionale è fatto assemblando alcuni fiori arancioni di foam biadesivo che avevo nel mio stash. Ho aggiunto del Nuvo Drop trasparente su tutte le punte (grazie Carol! :D) e una grande goccia di Nuvo Drops arancione nel centro.
Incollato tutto su un cartoncino arancione piegato a metà e ...finito! :D

You've captured the warm colors of autumn with this pretty card, and the sentiment is the title of a song that was popular many moons ago! Now it's like an earworm - I'll have that tune in my head all night long! LOL Love the sparkle of the glossy accents and that beautiful embossing on the side! Gorgeous make!
This is so stunning!! I love the embossing!! It looks amazing!! The colors are so gorgeous! What a beautiful card, my friend!! Have a great day!! Big hugs :)

It's just gorgeously hot with the yellow & orange colors. Love that once again, you've shopped your stash and made something beautiful, and beautifully design! The orange vellum embossing was a terrific detail to add to the music score, and that fab layered flower really steals the show here. TFS & Hugs
You can't help but smile seeing this wonderful card. The yellow and orange is so cheerful. Fabulous embossing, especially the orange vellum, and glittering of the sentiment. The star flower is gorgeous with the Nuvo products applied to it and the tiny butterflies are really sweet :). Debra x
Beautiful Alice, the colours I love immensely and the embossing is stunning. I love that large sentiment...a very true one..xx
Ciao Alice,
Hai creato una bellissima grafica autunnale e un bel uso di cartelle in rilievo.
Mi piace sempre lavorare con i colori di questo periodo dell'anno, ma non mi piace pensare che ciò significhi che l'inverno sta arrivando. Forse dovrei trasferirmi in Italia per l'inverno, è un'idea meravigliosa.

WOW love the way you used Nuvo drops...I never could get them to work for me!!

Bella e solare, altro che colori autunnali, non mi ci fare pensare! E mi piace nella sua semplicità!
gorgeous warm colours and a super card
Hugs Kate x
Thanks for joining in the fun at Creative Inspirations, your card is brilliant, Liz x
Wonderful texture and sparkle, Alice ... fabulous sentiment ... and such yummy cosy colours ... just like a warm hug! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Time Out! Anita :)
Lovely fall colors. I wonder if we’ll have all these colors this year, it’s been an unusually warm and dry summer and it almost looks like the leaves are turning directly to brown from the green. The sentiment looks like it’s been covered in sugar, nice effect, and the gloss on the flower looks great too.
These colours are absolutely beautiful, so warm and bright. And your detail with the Nuvo clear drops and the dry embossing gives it so much dimension and interest. Its a fabulous card and I'm so glad you shared it with us at TIME OUT!
What a beautiful project! I love it! Thank you so much for joining us in our challenge at Crafty Gals Corner. Looking forward to see you again next challenge.
