I am very thrilled and honored to be a Guest Designer for this month's Color Challenge. Mary gave us some lovely colors this week, but threw in a dessert swizzle to make a fall themed card. Except for the Early Expresso these colors did not scream Fall for me. But that is why they call it a challenge. I stamped my images from the Faith in Nature set and used some Copic markers that are close to the challenge colors to color them. I used the brown shade that I picked up with a lighter color marker to get some shading and depth and make it feel more fall like. I sponged Early Expresso ink onto the small rectangles and the card base and banner. I added additional Lemon Lime Twist ink to the edges of the card base and banner. I am looking forward to what everyone else does with these colors. Happy Stamping!

I love how you made the colors work for a leaf, a flower and a pear. Great distress work on this autumn card. The fall is my favorite time of year and your card makes me smile!

Your card is really stunning! I love the gorgeous way you have colored these images. You have taken a "oldie, yet goodie" stamp set and made it look knew and modern on this gorgeous fall card! ~Karen.
