Happy Fall Card With Last Minute Manda Fall Gnome digi

Happy Fall card featuring Last Minute Manda Fall Gnome digi, colored with Caran d'Ache Luminance 6901 pencils, by Paperesse.

Yet another fall card for you today with yet another LMM all-digi-stamps-pre-2025 bundle buy digi. As on my last card, this digi is from the Fall Gnomes set. For the card's design, I copied this past favorite Polkadoodles Theo Penguin holiday card

I created a circular path sentiment in Affinity Photo 2 with Avignon Pro font to frame my digi. This was always one of my favorite things about Craft Artist 2 Professional and I am glad to again be able to create same in Affinity. If you're wondering how Affinity Photo is working out for me as a replacement for Craft Artist, mostly it is positive. However, Affinity does so much more than Craft Artist that it can be a bit complex at times, still it does what I want and I'm glad to have it. If you're looking for a replacement for Craft Artist, you can get a free 7-day trial of Affinity Photo 2, Designer 2 and Publisher 2 HERE. If you'd like to use the sentiment for yourself I've included a free copy you can download HERE. I just ask that if you do use the sentiment and post it online that you credit back to me.

Paper is a mix of defunct Tactile Studio Carmelene and Prettygrafik Thanksgiving Girls digital paper packs. Nuvo Crystal Drops in Autumn Pearl give a bit of bling.
