SU Only Challenge 3

Here's another card using French Foliage.  I think this stamp set has turned out to be my favorite from the Holilday Mini.  I don't usually make many fall cards but this set makes it so easy!  I made this card for the challenge at SUO Challenges - SUOC3.  The challenge was to use something from the Holiday Mini.  I also used a Verve sketch from a couple weeks ago.  The DSP is Autumn Spice from the Holiday Mini.  It's hard to tell from the photo but this DSP is so nice.  It's heavy weight and textured, just beautiful.  I stamped with a bunch of fall colors - More Mustard, Early Espresso, Cajun Craze and Old Olive.  My sentiment is from the set Fabulous Phrases.  I first punched it with the Word Window punch and then I used the Tiny Tag punch to punch just one end for the hole.  I added a button and some linen thread.  I think these are my new favorite embellishments.  I seem to be using them a lot lately!!  Thanks for stopping by!.. 

Three Challenges in One!

This is a first for me.  I've never done one card for three challenges before. I have to say, I really like how this card turned out!  These challenges worked really well together.  I used the color combo from Color Q - cQc51.  The sketch is from Paper Pal Arts - PPA61.  I haven't played along with the Paper Pal blog in awhile.  I love this sketch!  Finally, I found a new challenge blog, SU Only Challenges - SUOC2.  I'm going to like playing along with SU only challenges!

For my card, I used the stamp set Just Believe.  I used my markers to color the stamp.  The combo is Old Olive, Poppy Parade, Peach Parfait and So Saffron.  The SU Only challenge was to use the Big Shot.  I cut my Old Olive tag with the Lots of Tags sizzlet.  I layed my sentiment from the set On Your Birthday with the Oval punch.  I used my corner rounder on the main image and finished with some pearls.  Thanks for stopping by!
