Another Two for One

Once again I am creating a two for one card....I love putting color challenges with sketch challenges.  This card was created for the color challenge from Sunday Stamps and the sketch challenge from Paper Craft Crew.  Fall is in the air even here in Florida...we are thankful of the cooler mornings and evenings.  This fall stamp, from Stampin Up's Happy Scenes set,  is one of my all time favorites even though it has been retired.
