YEAH! Time for my submissions (is that an s on the end of that word?) for this weeks wonderful Make My Monday challenge: Autumn Trees!I own a lot of tree images...okay not A LOT, but a few! And I wanted to utilize most them for this awesome challenge.
I decided to combine one card into a color challenge found here at CR84FN. It's a fabulous color challenge and this weeks colors are red, brown and kraft. Fabulous fall colors, don't you think?!
I am also using my Halloween tree to enter again into the Just Us Girls challenge this week: Black Magic Technique. It's perfect for Halloween! :)ALSO, I wanted to try to highlight different "autumn" topics. So, I made a fun Halloween tree; a tree triad in full fall colors; and a almost barren, end of autumn tree (you know, going into winter, last bird standing thing). You ready for these? Okay, here they are!
Card 1: Spooky Spider Tree (Halloween)~
A look at the inside sentiment~

Card 2: Jeweled Tree Triad (Full autumn colors)~
Some details~
The inside sentiment~
Card 3: Autumn's Last Stand (Almost barren, end of autumn tree)~
Detail of the splatter, shadow, and bling~
For this last card, I used my color spritzer to create burst of color for the leaves and a light splatter of red across the kraft panel. I also wanted to add depth to the tree by shadowing the branches and trunk with a Versamark pen.
So, what do you think? I love each one! I'm so excited to be able to share them with you and to enter into these fabulous challenges! Hopefully you're inspired to create a wonderful fall craft today! Come join us at one or all of these challenges soon! Happy autumn and happy stamping! :)

A lovely variety of tree cards - specially like the triad one
Really LOVE the splatter, bling and cute red bird! THX for playing with us at CR84FN!
WOW - these are stunning - absolutely gorgeous. Thank you so much for playing along with us again this week at Make My Monday and I'm so glad you are enjoying our challenges - Jacqueline xx
All your cards are so interesting but the last one is simply goregeous! I like this tree very much!!! I like it very much:)
Such a super selection of cards - I do like the autumnal feel that the collection has. Thanks for playing along with CR84FN!
Brilliant collection here Mynnette! But my fav is the one with the sweet little red bird, touch of those last standing leaves and the perfectly matched ribbon!!!
Three wonderful cards. My favorite would have to be a tie between the tree triad card and the autumn last stand card. I love the layout of the triad, but the soft, wintery feel of the last stand card kind of wins me over. So glad you joined us at CR84FN this week!
Lovely cards Mynette!! Love your take on the black magic technique and your use of the CR4FN colors! Thanks for playing along with two of my favorite challenges ;)

They are all beautiful, but my favorite is Autumn's Last Stand. It's a terrific take on the CR84FN40 challenge.
