I really had no intention of doing four challenges on one card, it just happened organically. Really!
~Tuesday's CC-soft suede, flirty flamingo (on top) and terracotta tile on the bottom. I used reinkers on ink pads to swipe on the colors, mist with water and laid on the stamp. I wasn't sure if dye inks would work well enough but I'm happy with it. I think flirty flamingo and terracotta tile look a lot alike. I also swiped the pads on another piece of cs and cut the dies, which were hard to work with. Lots of teeny pieces. I sprayed the leaves with a little silver mist to make them stand out.
~Wednesday's WCW017-watercolor imprint. I used the large Carabelle stamp, it's a floral but looks more like a mandala.
~Today's F4A-Fall card
~Today's MIX-photo of Dolly Parton in the movie 9-5. Paper clip and clock embellishments.
When I worked at Target, I had to punch a time clock. I still have a nightmare that I'm working, the store is absolutely humongous, I can't find the office to punch out, when I finally find the office, I can't find the time clock, when I finally find the time clock, I can't make it work. All I can think about is I will have missing punches (I used to work in the office and had to fix missing punches) and won't get paid. It's like Ground Hog day, happens over and over. I have very vivid dreams sometimes.
Thanks for all the fun challenges!

Fabulous card, some of my favorite colors all in one. Love your story, some days I think I'm still at work too, the tought of it makes me cringe....LOL
I'm sitting here on my Laurels doing nothing when I could be making cards. I think I'm slightly burned out and creating in my head.

Oh, I'm glad to see you used a stamp for the WCW challenge. I have not tried that. It seemed to have work beautifully. Love that you could get in four challenges.Terracotta is another of my fave colors. Awesome card.

Great card, Jean! You are so good at combining challenges! I love the CC colors this week, but didn't have any luck with the watercolor challenge. I threw my piece in the garbage. The leaves, fibers and timepiece are great accents!

What gorgeous leaf dies. I think those are the ones I was looking at during the week and decided to pass on, but they look fantastic, especially with the silver mist. Love the clock/watch embellishment. The stamp imprint looks more like a fossil shell to me, but very nice.

Wow, Jean, I am so impressed that you combined all these challenges. That is so awsesome as is this terrific card. I had a lot of fun with that WCW challenge this week too. This worked out beautifully on your card.

Gorgeous design... you poor soul and your reoccurring bad dream, that's when I get up and go to the craft room! You've combined all the challenges wonderfully and love the Dolly accents! It sounds like you participated in some fun challenges and did a great job of fulfilling them.

Love the watercolor imprint using a stamp! Your colors are so pretty and love your fall theme and also 9-5 themes too. Very cool card- love the sentiment too- looks beautiful embossed.
Sorry about that nightmare too- I used to always get to work at 1 minute to starting time....LOL

Love the timepiece embellishment. Maybe this will be cathartic and will put your dreams to rest. At least dreams about time cards. LOL. I have very vivid dreams too. When they are good dreams I enjoy them, but when they are bad dreams it takes me a while to recover from them when I wake up. Love how the background turned out. Thanks for being a faithful Mix challenge follower.
