Falling Leaves

I love the fall.  It's my favorite time of year.  The cool crisp air, the chaning of the leaves of the trees, squirrels busy about their business collecting nuts for the cold winter ahead, back to school time.  I love everything about it.  I'm a sweatshirt and jeans kind'a gal. 

This card envokes all of those feelings of Fall for me. How about you?  Do you have a favorite season?  Why is it your favorite?

Stamps:  Day of Gratitude (120835 wood or 121148 clear)
