Hello friends! Another month has rolled around and therefore it's time for a new challenge at Color Hues. The lovely Marcia is our host, and she's chosen some perfect fall colors for this challenge.
Yep, I went with leaves, these colors were too perfect not to.
The leaves were all die cut from white cardstock, then I used Copic markers to color them in a variety of yellows, light reddish brown and rust. Coloring wasn't anything fancy but when the colors are all blended, they look so nice.
A panel of C & 9th Sunflower cardstock was die cut with a postage edge die, then stamped in a similar color with a plaid, creating a subtle, tone-on-tone background. The panel was added to an ivory card base, then the wreath was assembled, layered on two additional wreaths cut from SU Cajun Craze. A few extra leaves were die cut, colored, then mounted slightly askew on top of the same leaves. The sentiment was die cut and added, along with a few gems, and that completed the card.
That's it! Please spend a minute visiting the challenge blog, my talented teammates have some amazing cards to inspire you. The challenge will remain open until October 14th at 9am EDT. I hope to see your card in the gallery!
Thanks for stopping by!
