Distress Oxide Ink Fall Card
Happy Fall Y’all! Gina back again! If you’ve been following along, then you know Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the colors the most. I live in the woods, so enjoying God’s beauty through nature is a big part of my life. It’s so peaceful to listen to the wind and watch the leaves swirl around. And that is exactly how I got the inspiration for this Fall themed Distress Oxide Ink Card. I hope you can look at it and feel that same peace and joy.
