A NEW Monthly Mix Challenge has started over on the Gina K. Designs blog! This months hostess is Rema DeLeeuw and she is challenging us with a "Color Blocking" technique. You can find all the challenge details HERE.
For my sample I created blocks of color using Honey Mustard and Warm Cocoa card stock embossed with the Echo Park Fall is in the Air embossing folder. For the stamping I used three colors on the leaves. I first inked up the leaf from the *Autumn Silhouettes stamp set with Honey Mustard, then I added a little Prickly Pear on the right side, and some Warm Cocoa on the stem and center. I used ink cubes for this one to make inking a little easier plus I wasn't very worried about cross contaminating the pads. I then stamped the sentiment from the *Haunts and Harvest set with Charcoal Brown. For embellishment I added some little clay hearts from my stash.
*If you missed getting the Festive Fall Card Kit not to worry as the kit pieces will be available individually at the next release on October 19th at 7:00 PM CT.
