DCC Challenge - Happy Fall Y'all

This weeks DCC challenge was chosen by fellow RI Rockstar, Brenda Turner.  She has chosen 'Happy Fall Y'all'.   I love that.  The trees are just starting to change color here so this challenge is just perfect.

Last fall my 'go to' stamp was RI Maple Leaf Silhouette - 5127-K.   You can see those projects here & here.  Here it is a year later and guess what fall stamp I grabbed to ink up.  You got it - the Maple Leaf Silhouette.  Still my favorite!!!


So what is your favorite fall image to ink up?  Go get it!  Ink it up and create your own 'Happy Fall Y'all' card.   If you link that card here on the RI blog, you will be entered into a drawing for an unmounted sheet of images.  Go here to see the full details & rules

I hope you get a chance to play along.
