The challenge this week at 'Wednesday Stamper' was 'Autumn'. I only used one stamp from 'Above the Mark'....a leaf background stamp. I layered strips of scrapbooking paper with clip art & a few leaf 'punchs' (& inks). The funny thing about this collage is that by itself it fell short...I wasn't pleased. BUT, when I picked up a scrap of leaf paper and some red matboard...it had instant punch and interest to my eye. It IS important to save all those bits of scraps!...smile.

I'm wondering if you may have a bit of pack rat within you like I do? Hahahaha!
