Fall Color Challenge at Love To Create

Make sure you check out the inspiration photo before you make your card for the

 Challenge at

 Love To Create

 this week. 

 It's some unconventional colors that I've turned in to a Fall card. 

 I'm just really in the mood for fall/Thanksgiving colors 

(even if they are a little unconventional).

Thank you to our Sponsor - Bugaoo Stamps for this adorable image called 

Fall Leaves

Here is your inspiration photo

If Friends Were Flowers, I'd Pick You!!!

This is my last post for awhile for Tammy's Scrapin' Corner, y'all.

  But we will see y'all after the first of the year, hopefully!

I'm going to miss this group of crafter's that I've become friends with.

Thanks to our great sponsor, Bugaboo, for this awesome sentiment 

which I thought was so appropriate today. 

 To you, my friends from Tammy's Scrapin' Corner!

I'm on an aqua/turquoise/peacock blue kick lately after seeing some of the new Christmas displays at Michael's Stores a few weeks ago.  I love it added with some lime green!

I've used some 6 x 6 Jewel Basic Colorbok papers and Card Stock for all of this project. 

 Starting with a 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" base with a top fold.   

Attach a 5 x 5 piece of designer paper with your ATG.

The flowers were made from a Paper Studio's heart punch which were then colored with my spectrum noir markers, moulded and  attached with micro glue dots.

The three vertical panels were cut and assembled (1 1/2 x 4 3/4 base and 1 1/4 x 4 1/2 Designer Paper on top).

 The leaves were cut with my Cricket using the Picture Perfect set and colored with the Spectrum Noir markers.

 I cut the sentiment and layered with card stock and designer paper which were attached with foam tape.

 The bottom strip was cut (same as top 3 vertical strips) and attached with foam tape.  

Then I just layered the leaves and flowers, adding a bow.

I Will Love You Until The Day After Forever

Trix,

 right down to the red collar).

Love this sentiment and the Butterfly Bubbles image from

Inspiration Card

a step card

for Challenge #68

at

Tammy's Scrapin Corner

The base of the card was distressed with ink using a make up sponge.

I used some white card stock and 

Tim Holtz Distress Inks and Paints

 to color my background.

Added a strip of 1/8" scor tape and turquoise glitter.

I colored the image with colored pencils, 

added glitter around the punch, and 

liquid pearls was painted over the

 butterfly and 

around the edges of the image.

I added some clear glitter to the "bubbles"

The sentiments were fancy cut and

 mounted to gray card stock and 

attached to the card with foam tape.  

I added some extra bling and a few dots of liquid pearls to finish off the card
