Autumn is by far my favorite time of year: misty mornings, crisp air, the fabulous colors and the smell - yes, the sour, and very exciting odour that comes from the fallen leaves. Spring takes only a week or so where I live, but autumn stretches on for a few months.
Now is the most vivid time, and I wanted to portray it on my card. I was inspired by one challenge to use hexagons, and I find they add a nice counterpoint to the organic form of twigs and leaves.
The sentiment reads: The small, lovely things of life. It fits with my love of autumn.

Beautiful Autumn card! Those hexagons just pop! Thanks for sharing with us at Try it on Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteYour clean and simple composition is lovely Alice! And your thoughts on Fall vs. Spring as favorite may have just swayed me…sometimes the leaves falling quietly in sunlight feels magical and miraculous. Great to see you at the Try It On Tuesday challenge blog! ~ Nancy J :o)

I like the contrast of the geometrical shape of the hexagons and the gracefulness of the leaves/twigs.
