Happy Sunday, everyone! Hope your weekend is going well so far! We're to have a picnic today at church--we'll see how the weather cooperates! Meanwhile, Jaydee is our Paper Players hostess today and her color challenge really did challenge me! Yikes---check it out!
Oh my...the dreaded Wild Wheat AND Pebbled Path, LOL! Well, I gave it a go, that's what challenges are for, right? And I will admit that I was happy with the outcome! Here we go:
I added a few diecut flowers leaves, and everything went on an embossed panel of Timeworn Type. These colors are pretty nice for fall, and they work wonderfully together in lighter shades and small doses, LOL! Since The Flower Challenge is looking for die cuts this week, I am also going to enter it there!

It's a beautiful card...Wild Wheat and all! Love this and such a pretty color combo, LeAnne! Hoping your church picnic goes on without any showers today but i'd keep an eye to the sky just incase!
ReplyDeleteI love the frame with the flowers surrounding it. One compliments the other and colors are perfect for this project. Winner for sure.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card! Those colors came together nicely on your card. Those two boys are growing! I noticed the righty and lefty right off! LOL! It will be fun for them to have a sister.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, LeAnne, the colors are amazing together - this whole design is simply stunning! Brilliant combos here - love your Countryside frame on our sketch, and the Dainty stems just blow me away. Seriously, absolutely gorgeous! Thanks so much for playing at Hand Stamped Sentiments!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful card. Love the fall colors. I also love that the kids are learning how to shoot with that compound bow. So much fun. Thanks for linking this up over at The Flower Challenge.
ReplyDeleteYou did wonderfully with these colors, LeAnne! Your fall flowers are beautiful and the frame around the embossing sets them off perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI think you worked magic with the colors, LeAnne! Your sweet little wildflowers were the perfect choice!
ReplyDeleteThis is such an elegant card - a great take on our sketch - love it - thanks for playing along with us again at HSS
ReplyDeleteLovely card! I love the combination of stamped images with the die cuts.TFS
ReplyDeleteI hear you aout those colors but your card is lovely! Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteHey LeAnne, sorry about having to make you run for the hills! you might have been scared of the colors but you attacked them head on and completely rocked the challenge. Tour choices of florals add a delicacy and lightness to the card, while the gorgeous texture on the base grounds the whole design. just stunning, my friend. it really was worth using the dreaded Pebbled Path - the color works beautifully on the frame

I thought these colours were tricky but you totally nailed it LeAnne! The delicate design against the textured background works like a charm! I love that we both used the same sketch and approached it so differently, despite using the same colours - I am adding yours to my CASE pile for sure!
ReplyDeleteLeanne, I thought for sure I was the only one who struggled with Jaydee's beautiful colors! Your card turned out lovely - it's a bit more helpful when you use another challenge to kick-start the creative process. I love the contrast of colored outline images and solid die-cuts.
ReplyDeleteLeAnne, I think you used the colors beautifully, I love the delicate flowers. It took me a bit to figure out how to use them- then I remembered the daisy dsp. Gorgeous card.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely stunning, LeAnne! The flowers are so delicate and the rich texture makes the perfect backdrop for them. What a wonderful way to combine challenges! You definitely nailed it. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteLeAnne, I just adore your card! I love the delicate little flowers and the gorgeous embossed background. The wood grained panels adds so much detail! I think you rocked these colors, My Friend!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful card, LeAnne! I love how you paired the challenge colors with that stamp set and the textured background is the perfect detail.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what you were worried about with this color combo, you killed it! So elegant looking and I love the way you framed in the flowers from the sketch! Beautiful card! Thanks for joining the hand stamped sentiments challenge!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous card LeAnne! Love all the texture, the frame and of course your pretty flowers and sprigs. You mastered this color combo beautifully - no surprise! Thank you so much for sharing with us at The Flower Challenge!
