I love today's Color Challenge palette, and I even had dessert with some leaves. Up north leaves are starting to turn, so it was fun to color these oak leaves (even though I've not seen fall for more than 25 years). This is the new Power Poppy Instant Garden digital image and sentiment, and I this is my first (feeble) attempt at no-line coloring, and I'm not sure I did a great job. But we have to start somewhere, right? I used the out-of-the-box technique, added some piercing, and also embossed the background to add some texture. More information on my blog.
Well, that's it for now. Thanks for taking a closer look, and I hope you have a wonderful week! Hugs!

Cheryl I have to disagree with you, I don't think this is a feeble attemp at no line coloring; I think your card with breath taking. I like the piercing and how you left blank spaces. Beautiful card.

Cheryl, your no-line stamping and your exquisite coloring have made this card an absolute standout! The out of the box technique is super. The diagonal embossing and pierced focal border are such perfect accents. This is a real WOW creation!

ROTFL...feeble....sis we need to talk. This is jaw dropping gorgeous. Your colouring always knock my socks off. This should be framed and admired everyday. I am off to google autumn in Florida, either you don't have it or you and BIL hide in a cave for 3 months! back to your card, I love it, love it, love it.
