Wow, another set of spectacular sponsors.  Just remember to show some love.

My design for this challenge is provided by Cute As A Button Stamps and is called Autumn Fairy.  This image would be fantastic for Fall, birthdays and many other occasions.  That is one aspect I love about digital images.  Being able to incorporate the image into many different cards/projects.  So let me show you what I came up with.  (pic heavy)

I will hand deliver it on Thursday along with the traditional spinach dip.  So I have a busy Wedensday.  I bake my own bread bowl to hold the dip.

This fortnights challenge is Thankful.  Be it gratitude or maybe just a thank you, to enter make a creation that shows being thankful.  Let's see who our sponsor(s) are for this challenge. 

PRIZE:  3 Digital Images


PRIZE:  $10 Gift Certificate


PRIZE:  $10 Gift Certificate


PRIZE:  $12 Gift Certificate


Did you see how many sponsor(s) we have this challenge?  Please my crafties, visit each one and please leave some love.  For this challenge, I have used an image from Fred-She-Said called Pumpkin Bouquet Digi.  The digi's from Fred-She-Said are wonderful.  Clean and crisp and a joy to work with.  Go check them out.

So here is what I came up with.  The front bouquet is printed and reduced to fit the area of the card front.  Inside is the actual image that I colored and chalked the background.  (Of course I have a list of all colors used.  Just email me)  The card design is from Diana Tunnicliff.  I love her designs.  so here is my creation.
The front of the card.  I cut the outline using Recollections paper.  The green
is mirror cardstock.


The top inside of the card.

This is the Pumpkin Bouquet Digi that I hand colored using
Prismacolors pencils and chalked the background.


That's it for this challenge.  November 11th is Veterans day.  Please thank a veteran for his/her service.  Bright blessings for now,
