CTD211 - Grateful...

This card is for the color throw down challenge #211.  The colors are starfruit, pumpkin pie, crumbcake, and sierra sand.  When I first saw these colors, I didn't think it was going to be easy to use them.  Surprisingly enough, it wasn't that difficult for me.  Thanks Wanda and girls at the color throw down challenge.

cQc156, More leaves...

Another wonderful color challenge.  These are fall colors - pumpkin pie, dusty durango, soft suede, rich razzleberry, and white.  I used real rust instead of the dusty durango.  I used a leaf from the Paradise set from SU, and did the rock and roll technique.  I love the warmth of these colors.

CTD210, Gratitude / Thanksgiving...


This is the second card I have made for the 210th color throw down challenge.  The colors are vanilla, crumb cake, chocolate chip, celery, and burmuda bay.  I used the taken with teal marker instead of the burmuda bay.  I bought this set recently, and this was the first time I used it - not the most typical colors you would think.  Anyways, thank you for looking!!

CTD209, Nature's Leaves...


This card is for the 209th Color Throw Down Challenge.  The colors are chocolate chip, cherry cobbler, summer sun, real rust, and old olive.  I love fall and I love these warm earth colors.  I stamped a maple leaf and colored them with prisma colored pencils.  I then fussy cut them out.  I dry embossed a piece of vanilla, and then put it together with my other cardstock using dimensionals as I went.  This was a fun challenge.  Thanks for looking!!  :>)

Mom's 75th Birthday...

I made this card for my mom's 75th birthday.  Last year at this time she had cancer.  She is now in remission, thank God.  As we encounter each illness, and continue to grow older, it makes me appreciate every day more.  I am so thankful for my mom.  It seems each year I love her more.
