Welcome dear stampers to the October Friends of Waltzingmouse Blog Waltz - this month's theme is Autumn Harvest.The waltz is run through the WMS forum in the Playroom - so go check it out and sign up if you haven't alreadydone so , then you can join along!
For my Happy Harvest card today, I dry embossed a circle Nestability on the front of my card. (you can see my little tutorial on how I did this on my post here.) Then I gold embossed this beautiful fall wreath inside the circle and the sentiment in the corner. Both stamps are from the WMS set Peace and Plenty. A must have set for this time of year!I colored the wreath with copics and sponged the edges and the circle with Old Paper Ranger Distress ink. To finish off this clean and simple card, I adhered 3 buttons in the top corner - one tied with a thin silk ribbon!
As always there is a contest going on in the forum and one lucky correct guess to the question will win a WMS stamp set of choice!Red is a very common autumn harvest color - but I didn't use it on my card today.
Now I'm off to see what everyone else who's waltzing with us this month has created!

Your wreath turned out amazing Julia..I love the heat embossing with the embossed frame...so pretty!!
I really love how you framed the wreath and made the card a one layer kind.
I like the gold embossed wreath.
WOW! The contrasts of the two kinds of embossing, the sponging, and the coloring make what one would think a CAS style very rich in detailing and design! Beautifully done, Julia!
