New Challenge @ Sunday Stamps #SSC320

 Today begins a new challenge at...

Sunday Stamps // #SSC320 ...A sketch challenge!!  This "Frame It" sketch has so many possibilities and we can't wait to see how you interpret the sketch. 

For my card I used layers of texture to show case my trio of fall leaves...a simple fall card!  I do hope you have "a beautiful day"!!  Now grab some supplies and play along with us!!  Start by checking out the rest of the design team's cards and all the challenge details over on our blog.  Then join the fun and play along!

4 other challenges inspired today's card...

Global Design Project // #GDP415 ...A theme challenge!!  The theme for this challenge is PATTERN!!  I let my embossing folder create a houndstooth pattern.  A perfect back ground for my fall leaves.

Fusion Challenge 11.12.20 & Color Throwdown Challenge #620

Here is my take on the Fusion challenge.  Each challenge we are given a sketch along with a photo.  Our challenge is to use one or the other or fuse them together...Fusion!!  For this current challenge I am using both the sketch and the photo.  For today's card I mixed alot of old in with the new...retired stamps and punches from Stampin Up along with their new stamp & punch set, Beautiful Autumn.

Another card...this one for the Color Throwdown Challenge.  Current challenge colors using Stampin Up colors...Rich Razzleberry//Tempting Turquoise//Crumb Cake.  Simple stampin and layering with a little bit of bing!!

Fusion Challenge...Purple Night & Tic Tac Toe Challenge #087

 Today's card was inspired by 2 challenges...

Tic Tac Toe Challenge #087...My three in a row from this game board runs down the right hand side.  Leaves//Trees//Purple.  The purple part had me stumped until I saw the Fusion Challenge.

Fusion Challenge//Purple Night...The Fusion challenge always gives us a sketch and a photo.  We are suppose to use one or the other or "fuse" them together and use both.  For today's card I chose to use both.
