Happy Wednesday Friends! Wow, it's October and Autumn is here, hopefully you are experiencing cooler weather and seeing lots of beautiful Fall Colors. Today begins a new challenge month at The Paper Funday Challenge Blog. Our generous sponsors this month are Varada Sharma Designs and Scrappy Tails Crafts and our Optional Twist is: Cute or Creepy.
For my design team project, I've used images from the Fairy Botanicals Stamp and Coordinating Die Sets by Scrappy Tails Crafts, to create a cute Autumn card.
I've colored the image using Copic Alcohol Markers and the patterned papers are from the "Fall Fun" 6x6 paper pad by Carta Bella. I've also followed Sketch #10 by Mary at Cardz TV, and you can find all her FREE sketches HERE.
After die cutting the image, foam pads were added and adhered to the oval die cut mini panel. The sentiment has been popped on craft foam as well, and is from an Autumn sentiment strip pack from Simon Says Stamp. Lastly, I've added gold sequins to finish off the design.
I forgot to mention that I've scored a line around the perimeter of the brown mat to add a bit more interest, and it also helped me line up the squares.
We hope you'll join us at the Challenge this month, and share your crafty creations. You may even want to try the Optional Twist of Cute or Creepy. So, until next time, Happy Crafting!
