Autumn Expressions

For today's Mini Catalog Blog Hop, I created this great card! I love cards that express gratitude and I was happy to make this card specifically for today :). Down below my free tutorial, you will find the list of demonstrators that participated in today's blog hop. Be sure to click on each of their live links in order to see all the great examples that you can make from this new mini catalog.

This new Mini Catalog really delivers! I have several bundles and I love ALL of them. I can't wait to share each one of them with you.

Now regarding today's card... fun fact.... I used the entire collection to make this card. The stamps, dies, DSP, detail dies, coordinating ribbon and embellishments. Because I used the entire collection, making this card was a breeze. And I used the new Wow! heat embossing powder from the Annual Catalog, for the sentiment. I love it so much!
