autumn flowers




Well, I don't have mums, but we'll just pretend that these are - ha! Kristina is back with another color challenge inspired from a wreath she has. This week's colors are Close to Cocoa, Elegant Eggplant, Pumpkin Pie, So Saffron, and Whisper White. Love the fall feel of these colors. The card size is weird - it's 3-1/4 x 5-1/2, but the 3-1/4 x 6-1/2 size looked a bit odd, so I trimmed it down. I also was able to use a new Nestibilities die template that I picked up from Hobby Lobby a little while ago - Tags! Sweet!


Have a great day!
Karen



recipe -
stamps: pocket silhouettes
ink: so saffron, elegant eggplant
paper: elegant eggplant, so saffron, whisper white cardstock, pumpkin pie patterns dsp
