Kristina Werner's Color Inspiration Challenge








I keep meaning to do some of these challenges I see on other people's blogs and I never end up doing anything so yesterday I decided that I was just going to do one no matter what. So what better to start with then Kristina Werner's Color Inspiration Challenge! So, here is my card using Bravo Burgundy, Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie, So Saffron, and Old Olive.
I'm too late to enter the challenge but I figured I might as well post it anyways. I came up with this idea because I am thinking of having Thanksgiving at my house this year and what could be better than a handmade invitation? The leaves are stamped on watercolor paper and then gone over with an aquapainter to soften the edges. The corners are paper pierced and the You're Invited stamp is done in Chocolate Chip directly on the watercolor paper. This whole piece is mounted on a piece of Old Olive and then on a So Saffron base.
The inside is stamped on a piece of Very Vanilla with the same leaves that are on the front. Then the other invitation information stamp is stamped in Chocolate Chip. The stamp sets used are Hugs & Wishes and Autumn Harvest. All materials are SU.
Thanks for visiting,
