Colorful Christmas Trees!

Today's card was super fun too! Love when an idea works! haha! 

This time I used The Paper Players challenge to use your favorite holiday image. Thaat's hard to decide but I really do love these trees. I combined it with the SUO Challenge and took their inspiration photo literally. And I am SO happy with how it turned out!
There's some Cloud Cover ink blended around the background. I don't know if it's CAS enough but I had a great time putting it together! 

Supplies:

Stamps: Peaceful Evergreens, Itty Bitty Christmas

Ink: Rococo Rose, Delightful Dijon, Gray Granite, Evening Evergreen, Cloud Cover

Paper: Cloud Cover & Basic White card stocks

Accessories: 2025-27 In Color Flat Pearls, White Baker's Twine, Peaceful Evergreen dies, Blending Brush, Big Shot

Also, btw, haha, when I say "I used scraps", this is what I mean: 

And I only even used two of those white trees, ha! 

Artistic Autumn Leaves!

Today has been a FUN stamping day! I've gotten several things going and I got to ink up this pretty, new stamp!
I used the colors from Color Throwdown (I will miss you!!!!) and the sketch from Hand Stamped Sentiments. I liked the result so much I made it twice with different shades! HA! (also because I couldn't decide between bold colors or pastel...)

This one was done first and I loved it...

Supplies:
Stamps: Artistic Leaves

Ink: Peach Pie, Lemon Lolly, Pear Pizazz, Pumpkin Pie

Paper: Basic White, Peach Pie, Lemon Lolly, Pear Pizazz card stocks

Accessories: Amber Gems, Circle Dies, Dimensionals

but then! I *really loved the second! 

Supplies:

Stamps: Artistic Leaves

Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry, Always Artichoke, Pecan Pie

Paper: Basic Vanilla, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry, Always Artichoke card stocks

Accessories: Amber Gems, Circle Dies, Dimensionals

I super love those Amber Gems. That's one of those things I actually do regret not getting more of! 

I switched sides of the orange paper because everything here was made with scraps, other than the bases. I think I like the richer colors card, but actually I think it's because of where I put the sentiment, and I think the little specks add a lot! 

Do you have a favorite?

First Day of School
