I started this card off in my head in a different set of colors. As is bound to happen, once I got started, the color palette changed into more fall colors. Funny, today in Philly, the weather is very much Indian Summer. We were out and about doing school shopping and I was totally amazed at the number of people picking pumpkins. For me, the weather has to be MUCH cooler. But I am reminded of the beauty of fall, the abundance of blessings in the many forms in my life, and the grace of God.
Creating this card reminded me of the blessings of the wonderful girlfriends in my life. I certainly don't thank them enough for their wisdom, guidance, support and love that they shower on me on a daily basis. So here's to you wonderful, dear friends of mine (you all know who you are!). Thank you for all that you do for me, you are appreciated and loved.

Stopping by from SSCC! Your card is lovely. Thanks for joining in our our challenge!
So very pretty, I like the bow in the button, the half? flower above it. And the slight row of gems along the bottom corner of the circle containing the sentiment. Don't leave off selecting your pumpkins for too long or October will pass you by. :)
