Hi Everyone, I'm over at Magenta, it's now published come on over and check out how I made this card.
I had a few glitches this week one was a blogger issue. I learned the hard way that at the moment once your post is published on the new version of Blogger it won't let you change the date to a future time and day. We've all hit publish when we meant to save 😏
Apologies everyone I got my post time and date mixed up and new blogger won't let me change it, the should have gone live tonight. The Magenta post will go up at midnight, I hope you drop by.

Gorgeous stamps and love the combo of fabulous colours... xx
Loving the colours you have used on these pretty stamps Christine. A fab card. x
Many Happy Returns of The Day Christine....x. Your card looks amazing with great colours and looking forward to when your card comes up on Magenta to see how it is done...It is not coming up yet x. Sending hugs x.
I went to look too and didn't see it yet but it looks so pretty. Can't wait to see the details.
This is wonderful, I love the silvery look to the background and the coppery look to the leaves. I shall try to visit again tomorrow so I can look and see how you did this xx
So beautiful! The leaves appear to have a transparent look to them that I love.
What a beautiful sentiment and background! This is truly where you shine, Christine. There's something different every day with the new Blogger. Some good, some not so good. Lots of bugs to work out yet.
Happy birthday again, Christine! I guess this is Blogger’s gift to you. 😂
That background looks amazing. Looking forward to reading your post. No doubt will learn something new. 😉
Thank you Christine for sharing your artsy mixed media Stamped Autumn leaves card. I love your muted colors and wonderful sentiment. Love and Hugs..and Happy Birthday, my friend.
Gorgeous card Christine! I LOVE those amazing leaves! xx
Popping back to see if the link is up but will try again later. Thank you so much Christine for the lovely comment on my recent blog post...Very generous and kind x
Love this wonderful background and the pretty maple leaves, Christine! A true sentiment!
I had to wait until Magenta posted to comment because I did not want to miss your process. There is always something new and different and how I love these results. I'm also fond of your muted colors. You are always trying something different and it's a delight to see your cards!
Thanks for the step by step Christine over on the Magenta site and I love the colour combination of the frayed burlap and the speckled egg. The leafs look amazing and so is your card x.
Don't you just hate it when blogger changes... Sorry for your trouble but on a plus note this card is fabulous! I love leaves (as you know) and your creation really represents the falling leaves of Autumn
another gorgeous looking card, I actually love any tree or leaf card. well done.
What a pain with Blogger, I couldn't upload any pics at all so I reverted to the old format. I tried different ways to add pics but it would not work. very frustrating.
have a good wknd mf.

Love the delicate colours and those leaves are beautiful. It's all gone a bit autumnal here too, but I'm hoping it's temporary and the sun will be back before autumn really sets in.
As far as the watercolour course goes, I've learned a lot from watching a lovely man called Steve on YouTube - he calls his channel "The Mind of Watercolor" so you should be able to search on that and find him. He has a series of beginners' tutorials, but it's also just lovely (as well as educational) to watch him paint. The best of all, I think, are his "spontaneous landscapes" - mesmerising to watch. If you go to youtube and put "mind of watercolor spontaneous landscape" into the search bar, I'm pretty sure you'll find him... a nice place to start, maybe?

Gorgeous card, Christine! I love the colors and texture! Speckled Egg and Frayed Burlap are a beautiful combination, and the crumpled texture and the subtle words stamping make the fabulous background! The maples look fantastic too!
Hideko xx
oh such a wonderful layered background Christine! Love it!
Sigh... ya the new blogger is interesting. Hopefully it will grow on us. :)
Thanks also for the congrats message. Very much appreciated! <3
A lovely and magical card,Christin, gorgeous layered background!
I gave up on the new blog, I switched to the old one (you can): it misses so many feautures :-|
Such fabulous maple leaves Christine and I love the colours and another interesting background too. I know what you mean about the new Blogger. I kept getting double spacing and couldn't seem to fix it so I have returned to the old one for now. Just hope these sillinesses will be fixed before they withdraw the old one. x
Another background that will not leave you indifferent. I have the impression that the autumn fog has already appeared on the ground when I look at this card. A unique feeling.
xx
