Oct 21, 2016 | Fall, Friend, Generic, Pals Paper Arts, PPA card, Seasonal, Thinking of You |
This week's color combination is a fun one that can be used for a variety of cards. I chose to create a card for fall.

Check out the color combo from my friend & fellow Pal Shawn de Oliveria.
This is a simple card with a fair amount of Very Vanilla for my neutral. But I felt that it was necessary because the color combo can be over powering. The Work Of Art stamp set inked with Tip Top Taupe and stamped off twice provides a backdrop fro my trees from the stamp set Totally Trees.

After stamping the base trees with Tip Top Taupe Ink, I stamped the 2nd layer with Tangerine Tango & Emerald Envy. My intention was to give the trees some color without making them gaudy. Enamel Shapes from the Brights & 2016 – 2018 In Color add some coordinating color to my card and they also help to ground my image.

The sentiment from the stamp set Greatest Greetings is inked with Tip Top Taupe Ink & stamped on a Very Vanilla Banner. The banner is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Supplies Used:
Oct 20, 2016 | Masculine, Sketch Challenges |
After checking out the sketch made by friend Linda at Freshly Made Sketches I decided to play along.

The sketch lent itself to a masculine card and I felt that Moroccan Nights would be the perfect stamp set for this challenge.

My card is simple and follows the sketch closely. You know how it is when you create a masculine card. It cannot be too fancy or have too many embellishments. Heat Embossing with Copper Embossing Powder allowed me to have a bit of shine on my card without making it look too feminine.

The combination of 5/8" Burlap Ribbon & a strip of Early Espresso Moroccan Washi Tape definitely bring my card back into the masculine realm. However, the cute little sentiment from Sweet Stack stamped on Very Vanilla C.S. with Early Espresso Ink gives my card just a touch of cuteness. After cutting it with a scallop circle from Layering Circles, I mounted it on a circle of Early Espresso C.S. that was also cut with the Layering Framelits Circles.
