FALL CUTIES :: A DAY FOR DAISIES SHOWCASE


My A Day for Daisies DT showcase card today features one of the Fall Cuties, and she is called Acorn Cutie B.  I surrounded her with some precoloured digital leaves and added a cute sentiment from Create with TLC.  The colouring was done with alcohol markers.
I also added orange ribbon and an orange cs mat.
