Color Dare #220 ~ Pomegranate, Saffron, Poppy, New England Ivy with Colonial White

It's Friday so you know what that means!
Time for a new Color My Heart color dare!
This week the challenge is to use Pomegranate, Saffron, Poppy, New England Ivy with Colonial White. If you don't have those exact colors just use something close....but don't add any new colors to the mix! Details are in the sidebar of our home page.

These colors made me think of Fall. I love Fall! Unfortunately, the trees didn't become their vibrant best this year. So I had to create the bright Fall colors in my project. First I made a mask with a rectangular opening in the middle. I sponged the colors in the opening. The best way to get a nice crisp edge is to sponge from the mask into the opening. Then I stamped the leaves along on edge and a sentiment at the bottom. Very clean and simple not to mention easy peasy!

All products are Close To My Heart:

--Stamp Sets: Lovely Leaves, Sending Smiles (Cricut Bundle)

--Exclusive Inks: Pomegranate, Saffron, Poppy, New England Ivy

Color Dare #210 ~ Eggplant, Fern, Peacock, Desert Sand and Colonial White

It's Friday so that means a new Color My Heart color dare starts today! I love the colors for this dare! It made me think fall and the new leaf stamp set! For the leaves I sponged on some cardstock and then stamped the leaf image on top and cut it out. A fun splash of color in the background makes the other design elements stand out. Each least is "painted" with our new Shimmer Pen. It paints a light layer of shimmer wherever you want it!
