Color Throwdown... and a World Card Making sale!

 Happy World Card Making Day!!!

It's October 3rd, and my mind has been overtaken by colors of Autumn!  

These in particular, from Color Throwdown:

I was once surrounded by a forest of Oaks - if it weren't for the Sassafras among them, my world would have been totally brown because of all those Oaks!  it kinda made me sad for the Oak trees ... today, I gave them a gift of color using Altenew's water color pan set, specifically: crimson, orange cream, and cosmic berry and the 

EBE Mondo Oak Leaf stamp set, and dies ..

Here is a little closeup of the detail in that gorgeous Dotted Swirl again!!!

NOW if you're really quick about it, RUN over to EH because it was back in stock as of this posting!!!  Better yet?  ON SALE today - Do NOT forget the code - see below!


Thanks for spending a bit of time with me in my craft space - hope you have something fun planned in honor of 

World Card Making Day!

  6. GORGEOUS! We only have swamp maples around our woods...not very pretty! I have to go seek out some sugar maples to find some pretty leaves! Or I could always stamp some, but I doubt they would be as pretty as yours!

  14. Gorgeous slimline card, Michele! LOve the combination of the rich fall colors and the way you arranged the leaves. The flow of the leaves elegantly echoes the swirl in the background.
