What a great idea to create a new Thursday challenge! I know I didn't often limit the supplies I used on Thursday's card! : )
F4A...Free for All....sounds like it will be fun with new parameters every week. Thanks, Wendy and all the other gals that came up with this idea!
Today's challenge was to use texture, a color that we didn't use often and a DP. Orange is not a color I tend to use other than at Halloween. A week or so ago there was a challenge to use orange. I went the easy route and used off-shades of orange. This time I forged ahead with bright Halloween orange!

Side note: Yes I know, I don't have 24 carrots pictured....only 7. But a 7 KT vs. 24 KT friend wouldn't be too valued! : )

Good for you. You've made a great card with the orange (not a color I tend to use either). Love the sentiment that you have paired so perfectly with the image.

What a neat card, Sallie! Great use of the orange, love the image and sentment together (maybe the rest of the carrots are hiding on the other side of the bunch?!) and the BG paper makes me want to curl up and get cozy-- it looks like an old flannel shirt!

I just love your card!!! That bunch of carrots is colored so nicely and looks great on the textured bg. Your dp is absolutely perfect for this. The addition of the twine and button are perfect too. Such a nice job!!

Wonderful card. I like the sponging around the edges - softens the orange .. would have been my choice too, but I don't have any, lol. What a fun card!
