This is my 1st sample for CC655. I am your hostess this week and I chose peek-a-boo peach, lemon-lime twist and early espresso for my color trio. Dessert Option this week is a fall theme.
I started my card this week by choosing the designer paper. This selection from the Stampin’-Up “Painted Autumn” collection has the colors I chose for this week. Layered the paper onto the peach panel then started decorating.
My leaves, berry branches and acorns are dies from CottageCutz and I cut in the challenge colors. I sponged with peach and lemon lime twist inks for added depth. I used some burlap ribbon as well as a silk leaf ribbon that I had in my stash.
I stamped my “we give thanks” sentiment to finish off this card.
Hope you can find some time to play along with us this week. The DT has some great samples to get your creativity flowing.

Love the frayed burlap layer and the pretty leaf ribbon. The die cut flowers are so pretty in this week's colors! Great DS paper for this challenge, too!

Mary, this is an amazing display for the eyes. Your attention to detail keeps us looking to see what else is in this card. This is beautifully done.

GREAT color choice, and I love this interpretation with a darker emphasis. Beautiful, traditional card. Love the texture, colors, embellishments. And we are on a great head-start into the Thanksgiving season. Thanks for the challenge.
