Hello friends,
I hope you are all doing well. Today’s post is about the new challenge at Double D Challenges with the theme “Feeling FALLish”. For more information about the challenge and the lovely prize visit the Double D Challenge blog. Looking forward to see your card!
My inspiration for the challenge was the lovely warm Fall colors, leaves and the wood grain frame in the picture. I used kraft paper for my base card and then layered several die cut leaves on a wood grain designer paper. I used my Prime watercolors to create the lovely shades of yellow, orange and brown for the leaves. I finished of with a die cut sentiment which is a combo of 2 different die sets and a few gem stones. This was such an easy card to make and I love the warm and shabby feel of it.
Challenges I entered:
- Scrapy Land Challenges #77 (ends 11/15) – Anything Goes using any brand of die that Scrapy Land sells. (Dies: Poppystamps die “Freida Leaf” (No 1360) — Poppystamps die ‘Sending Script” (No. 1621) — Sizzix Tim Holtz Alterations Thinlits die “Garden Greens” (661206) — BoBunny Craft dies “Lovely Leaf dies” (Item #12839177))
- {PIN}spirational Challenge #202 (ends 11/06) – Inspiration picture : I was inspired by the leaves and colors!
