For this week's Pals Paper Arts challenge we get another gorgeous sketch from the fabulous Margaret Moody. This is a classic sketch, and the possibilities are endless.
I knew that I wanted to use wide ribbon on this card, and the horizontal space on the card was perfect for it. I built the rest of the card around that. It was fun to pull out some Christmas stamps to play with--it's never too early!!
Actually, Fall has always been my favorite season. We had gorgeous, 80 degree weather this past weekend, and I'll never complain about that, but I've also been enjoying the perfect fall days we've had the past couple of days. Gorgeous foliage, beautiful sunshine, crisp, fragrant air. What more could we ask for?
This week's Pals Paper Arts challenge is the pefect opportunity to celebrate all things Fall/Thanksgiving. And this gorgeous picture serves as inspiration:
There are so many elements of this picture that could be used for inspiration. Pumpkins are the perfect fall item for me, so I chose to focus on the pumpkins and the colors from this picture. My pumpkin is simply 3 Cajun Craze ovals, using the Oval Punch, with a snippet of Always Artichoke card stock made into a stem. Easy as pie, and you know how I feel about pie (and what could be more perfect than pumpkin pie?!)
Now, if only I could get whoever did these decorations to come and decorate my place!!
Happy Fall, y'all !!
Happy Thursday!! Today's Pals Paper Arts challenge is a color challenge, and these are the gorgeous fall-inspired colors we get to play with:
Well, for me they were fall-inspired, anyways!! I have much to be thankful for, and it's always good for me to take a moment to reflect on that. When we take time to be grateful for our blessings, any day really CAN be a Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!!
