Harvest Basket

Hello, everybody!  Before I share my card, I would like to welcome a new follower - Narobe Hisa - Natasa P - thank you for joining me! If you would like to leave a comment with a link to your blog, I will pop in for a visit.

As for today's card, I am still struggling with no crafty mojo! With that in mind, my goal this month is just to get my progressive challenge projects completed. This is the third one, so I have one more to go! The image is called Harvest Basket and it's the November Digi of the Month over at Imagine That... digis by KrisSince I participated in the progressive challenge last month, I received this month's digi for free. 

I printed the pre-coloured image but my ink cartridge is very low, so I ended up colouring over it with Prismacolor pencils. I fussy-cut, popped up with foam tape, and affixed to a stitched Gift Tag (Top Dog Dies).


Most of the pieces on this card were left over/recycled from a previous project so it gave me a headstart. The orange panel is embossed with Darice - Leaves Assorted Pattern. The die-cut leaves are from Impression Obsession Small Leaf Set, and the burlap is from Michaels.  I added some seam-binding ribbon that I won from Little Scrap Pieces (thank you, Karen!), a metal leaf charm, and a cute puffy squirrel sticker. I heat-embossed the sentiment (Clearly Besotted A Little Sentimental) in white on a purple scrap and rounded the corners.

I would also like to join these two challenges:

Thank you for looking at my card! Wishing you a joyful day!
