CAS Colours & Sketches challenge #546 colours

hello stampers!

It's our first challenge for October at CAS colours and sketches, and Laura has put these gorgeous colours together.  I can definitely feel an autumn vibe!

I used orange to blend the background, then adhered the vines, die cut from ink smooshed card. The dragonfly was cut twice from navy design paper, and adhered with its wings left loose. The circle was die cut from ink smooshed card.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. We'd love to see your card in the gallery!

I'm also posting this one on Timeout challenges where the challenge this week is an autumn themed one. I love the quote by Van Gogh, and realised I had a stamp with a similar quote from Camus. What luck!

 



• dies: SSS whirl dragonfly, Gummiapan twigs, MFT infinity circles
• stamps: Gummiapan sentiment
• inks: carved pumpkin, vintage photo distress oxides

happy birthday

 hello crafters!

I'm joining in today with the talented team at the paper players. It's a tic tac toe challenge and I chose to use the centre row: orange, die cut, stencil. Also posting it in the just us girls challenge #746 where it is stencil week.

I began by stencilling the background using Hero Arts Fall Leaves stencil. I used 4 distress oxide colours starting with the lightest and moved the stencil around between stencilling each colour. It gives such an interesting effect with so much dimension. Boots and sentiment are from Gummiapan, leaves from Spellbinders. The little leaves were die cut from ink smooshed card and adhered under the boots.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
