Color Throw Down #417 - Free Flying...



What a quick and easy card to make with this very cool image from Stampendous.  I simply inked the image with the three colors from this week's CTD challenge.

cQc365, Halloween Pumpkins...



I enjoyed playing in this challenge.  I masked my pumpkins and then watercolored the ones in front with tangerine and curry.  My pumpkins in back were shaded with black pencil.  Lucky me, I found some concord grape dp and card stock in my stash.  It came in handy just in time.  Thanks for looking and have a fun and safe Halloween.  :>)

Color Throw Down #416 - Open Heart



I created my bg with the SU stamp, sanded in kraft.  I then used French Script in blushing bride - which was close to peach.  My foliage was done in island indigo - the set was SU Open Heart.  I added a bit of cherry cobbler on my bird's head and with the sentiment.  Overall the colors weren't as difficult as I thought they might be to use.  Thanks for looking!!  :>)

Color Throw Down 414 - Vintage Acorns...



I made this card for the 414th color throw down challenge.  I absolutely love fall, and it was fun doing these fall images in unrealistic colors.  Our colors for this week are gray, aqua, and lime green.  I used SU's Bermuda Bay, Kiwi Kiss, and Slate.  I used the SU set Acorny Thank You along with the matching punch, and Vintage Leaves die cuts.  I also dry embossed the bg with a leaf folder.  Very fun!!  Thanks for looking!!

Mojo Monday 465, Blessings...


I created this clean fall card for the mojo monday challenge for the week.  My base card stock was some SU caribbean.  I used some plaid dp from Lawn Fawn.  My other panels were done with poppy and summer sun.  I used SU die cuts to create the oak leaf and acorn with chocolate chip card stock.  I think it's a fun little card.  Thanks for looking!!

Oak Leaves and Acorns...



Fall is my favorite season and I was so glad when I found time to create this card. The image is from Penny Black.  I used Derwent Inktense pencils to color the image.  I layered my card stocks and dp, and popped up my die cut oval and early espresso piece with dimensionals.  I added a little raffia and a button for a bit of embellishing.  Thanks for taking a look!!  :>)
