Scrappy Moms Stamps Terrific Tuesday Challenge - Fall Color Challenge - Brown and Orange

Happy Tuesday Crafters,

Summer is over and Fall is here so there's no better time to break out those Brown and Orange papers, embellishments, ribbons, etc and make a project for the brand new Scrappy Moms Stamps Terrific Tuesday Fall Color Challenge - Brown and Orange. 

I had an extreme difficult time just using brown and orange.  I cheated just a wee bit by using some yellow ink on my sunset background but I stopped there.  I really wanted to make some burgundy leaves but restrained myself.  Sentiment is from the Scrappy Mom's Stamps "The Charmed Life"  stamp set. The orange and brown of the hot air balloon, the dark brown leaves, acorn pieces and eye pieces are cut from paper pieces in my overflowing scrap drawers (almost each color has it's own drawer :) ).  

Here is my project: 

Card Recipe:

• "Happy Fall Y'all" sentiment from the Scrappy Mom's Stamps "The Charmed Life" stamp set. 
• Squirrel and leaves from Treasure Box Designs "Falling into Fall" file.
• I enlarged one of the leaves to stamp the sentiment on. 
• Inked all the pieces with Stampin' Up Dust Durango.
• Crushed all the leaves to make them look old and crinkly.  It also gave them some dimension.
• Card base is odd shaped.  I made it at 8-3/4" High by 4-1/4" to accommodate the Squirrel in the acorn hot air balloon.
• The back ground was cut 1/4" smaller than the card base and then inked using the following inks:
• Stamps of Life - Banana
• CTMH - Sunset & Honey
• Stampin' Up - Dusty Durango & Tango Twist
• Craft Smart - Orange

Hope you join us in this challenge.

Scrappy Mom Stamps Terrific Tuesday Challenge - We Belong Together

Happy Tuesday Crafters

Are you ready for the New Scrappy Mom Stamps Terrific Tuesday Challenge?

This challenge is to make a project that has items that go together such as socks/shoes, PG&J, burger & fries, etc. that incorporates a Scrappy Mom Stamp.  
  
Let you're creative imaginations flow and link your project up over on the Scrappy Moms Stamps Blog.

For this challenge I created two cards.  

My first card is a thank you card incorporating the "Sew Thoughtful" sentiment from the Scrappy Moms Stamps "The Charmed Life!" stamp set.  
I thought a sewing machine, and sewing accessories belong together and were perfect for this sentiment and challenge.

Thank You Card other Elements:

• Images from the Silhouette store
• Sewing Machine - Split Sewing Machine Title Design #73744
• Pin Cushion Design #43728
• Needle & Thread Design #17205
• Modified the Thimble from Sewing Charms Design #16889

My second card for this challenge is a little quirky.  I used the "Let's Veg-Out" sentiment from the same Scrappy Moms Stamps "The Charmed Life!" stamp set that I used for the Thank You card above.  Tomatoes, Carrots and Corn love vegging out together.

Let's Veg-Out Card other Elements:

• KaDoodle Bug Designs "Making Vegetable Soup" file which is retiring soon. 
• Used the jpgs and print and cut feature with my Silhouette Cameo. 
• Crinkle Ribbon is from 3griljam Caribbean Splash bundle
• Glitter paper from DCWV 6.5"x4.5" The Brights Cardstock Matstack with Glitter I received as a gift for my birthday.

Make sure you stop by the Scrappy Moms Stamps blog for details on when the challenge ends and to link up your "We Belong Together" project.   Looking forward to see what you create.
