It always puzzles me as to why the colours in a photo don’t look quite the same as in reality. This photo is a case in point. Here at home it isn’t as yellow as it shows here and is in fact more like the colours needed for the challenge. As You See It has a colour theme and a photo for inspiration this week.
My card started a while back as a mop up piece from some inking I had been doing. I set it aside for a few days and then stamped the skeleton leaves, an incentive set from GKD, setting it aside once more. I had intended to use it, and had already cut the piece using the unbranded die set I’ve just acquired, but in the end, went in a totally different direction. So once again it languished in my waiting to use pile.
It seems it was waiting for this challenge so I cut another piece using the next size die, using CS similar in colour to the one in the challenge and put the two together. My card front is dark gray but is CS from GKD. The sentiment strip is also GKD and I edged it with a black pen and added some copper glitter to the words before attaching it on top. Two Waffle Flower enamel dots completed the card.
Thanks for joining me today. I appreciate you and your time.

Such a lovely card getting me in the mood for autumn and colorful leaves. The edges on your dies are so pretty. Congratulations on your Honorable Mentions for last month’s sketch challenge, too. Your stripes were the right size for our leaves. LOL

You just can’t beat skeleton leaves for pure impact. Paired up with these pretty scalloped borders, they’re even better. Thanks for sharing with us at As You See it.

I love the detail on those skeletal leaves Johanna and they are the perfect stamp to make the most of that mopped background too. That sentiment made me smile too! Thanks for sharing over at As You See It!

Very Autumnal, Johanna. Matching colours is a tricky business, when each one of us sees colours differently, but you did a good job. I love those scalloped dies you used! Thanks for playing along with us at As You See It.
