I hope you've been clicking on the link in the upper left corner of my blog and checking out all the fantastic ideas each week!

The challenge for this week is a color challenge. Create something using the colors: Brown Bag, Sunset and Indian Corn Blue! I wouldn't have thought to use these colors together but had A LOT of fun doing it for this challenge. That's the great part about a challenge...stepping outside of your creative zone and trying something new or different! Take a look at some of my efforts....

I LOVE how this card turned out! The stamp set is D1298 Beautiful Things. I hadn't used this set in a while and it just reminded me how pretty it can be! Here's a list of the supplies I used:
--D1298 Beautiful Things
--D1306 Treasure Life (message)
--Cardstock: Colonial White, Brown Bag, Indian Corn Blue, Sunset
--Inks: Brown Bag, Sunset, Indian Corn Blue
--Antique Copper brads
--round sponge
--Spellbinder dies & Cuttlebug-oval layered on torn rectangle
The pine bough and cattail images were cut out and glued to the top to give just a bit of dimension. A cattail was stamped in the lower right on the inside of the card as an added touch.

I find myself reaching for this stamp set over and over again! A subtle tone on tone stamping at the bottom of the card helped add some interest and not compete with the main image.
Supplies:
--D1436 The Present
--Cardstock: Colonial White, Brown Bag, Sunset
--Inks: Brown Bag, Sunset, Indian Corn Blue 
--Colonial White ribbon
--Mocha Pearls
--round sponge
--Spellbinder die & Cuttlebug

This was a quick and simple card. I love the clean lines of the design.
