CAS - Colours & Sketches: Tangerine/Sahara/Summer Starfruit

Here is my interpretation of these beautiful earthy tones all combined neatly within paper and stamps! I used the Sahara shade (Memento London Fog) on the Thanks as well as on the gray paper to lift the beautiful paisley embossing from the gray paper. I used Color box Pumpkin for the Tangerine on the boarder of the die cut frame and Mustard in place of Starfruit for "a Bunch" and a spritz of homemade glimmer mist on the flower base to add a slight punch of color to my recycled book page flower. (I do like to recycle anything and everything I can get my little hands on. Herbs, leftover tea, coffee, newspaper, you name it, if I can re-use it is in my craft room) A bit of natural twine for a bow and we are ready to send our Thank You!

Word Art Wednesday -Anything Goes

Photo Inspiration Color Chalange

Over at Peachy Keen Stamps it is a color challenge.
 This is my interpretation of the photo. I took the colors and reproduced this beautiful card to send to a friend to Celebrate her birthday! I went almost totally old school using dies and only used my Cricut to cut the celebratory banner that I clipped on with a tiny little close pin. I thought it made it a little more cosy and warm along with the picket fence. (of course w all know it is a Tim Holtz die) I hope you all like my color and pattern choices, I just love hounds tooth!
