November 2014 Truly Grateful Card

I am happy to share with you my November Truly Grateful and Thankful for you Card Designs. I got some inspiration from Pinterest and I just added some details of my own style, so I am not taking all the credit for these designs :).
For the Truly Grateful Card I used:
Early Espresso Textured Card Stock for the base
Soft Suede Card Stock for the top layer (sponged and dyed with different ink colors)
I dyed the Very Vanilla seam binding ribbon wit a mix of ink colors too ( always artichoke, garden green and soft suede)
One Brushed bronze Designer button with Linen Thread bow
I stamped and fussy cut the Acorn from the Truly Grateful Stamp set.
I used the Autumn Accents Bigz Die and cut two leaves as seen on pictures in Daffodil Delight Card stock and used a technique I learned on youtube sponging the edges first with:
More Mustard Ink color (retired) you can substitute color for similar like crushed curry
then continue sponging edges with Cajun Craze, sponge in center with Always Artichoke ( if this look is desired) then Early Espresso on edges only.
Use the watermark stamp from French Foliage stamp set (retired) if you don't have this stamp set substitute with Gorgeous Grunge stamp set or similar, use Early Espresso ink color, add some shimmer and wrinkle the leaves to give them texture,

Combination #2:
More Mustard
Cajun Craze
Real Red
Early Espresso

Combination #3
Always Artichoke
Bravo Burgundy
Elegant Eggplant

I hope you like these Fall Card ideas and get some inspiration.
