I know – for all of you literalists out there – it’s not officially Fall until September 22 (at 10:29pm) – (remember – we already talked about this here?!) – still 8 more days of “Summer.”
But will you indulge me to share one more Fall card – BEFORE it’s officially Fall??
I had so much fun on Saturday just “goofing around” at home. We had no plans this weekend, and I told Marty I just wanted to “craft,” especially since the weather was so Fall-like. 🙂
I made a few cards, and I wanted to share this one that I made for the Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge (PPA219).
The challenge was to use these three colors: Crushed Curry, Always Artichoke, and Cajun Craze (Fall colors – right?!)
I used the SU White Christmas stamp for the trees and sponged a combination of only the three challenge colors to create other hues of oranges through blending. I used the fun Flower-Soft again for the Fall leaves and a Wplus9 framelit for the “hello” greeting.
I’m really happy with how the card turned out, and its vibrant colors are helping me in my quest to embrace Fall!
Tomorrow I begin a WordPress #Writing101 Challenge. It will be a 30-day challenge that provides a daily topic and a twist to the topic to challenge a blogger’s creative thinking and writing. I’m looking forward to sharing with all of you. Not sure where this will take us, but glad to have you along for the journey!
Another new adventure at life in between.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
the creative life in between 
I could “smell” the fall in your card. Love the colors of fall and you surely captured it in that beautiful card.
