Stamped and Colored Hello Card

  Today's card share is for the Paper Smooches "Anything Goes" challenge. 

   I only have one stamp set that was from Paper Smooches and that I got years ago in a Studio Calico kit. I never used it before , except for the "hello". It was perfect since I was in a fall mode. 
Supplies: cardstock (Canvas Home Basics and Bazzill Basics), stamps (Paper Smooches), ink (Tsukineko), markers (Spectrum Noir)

   This was the first time I created a scene stamped and colored card with no pattern paper. As you can see, I need more practice on the marker work. 

  Even, though the shading is off I still like how it came out.
    Here is a closer look.

Fall Mood Challenge @ SBC

   I am not one who is drawn too mood boards. I always find myself digging deep into my stash just to find that perfect color that is depicted in the board. However, this month's challenge over at Scrapbook Challenges spoke to me and I knew I had to do it.
  Here is how it inspired me. 

Supplies: cardstock (The Paper Studio and American Crafts), pattern paper (The Robin's Nest, Echo Park and Bazzil Basics), washi tape (Scotch Brand and We R Memory Keepers), flair (Basic Grey), doily (Doodlebug Design), stamps (Karen Foster), ink (Momento), embossing folder (Tim Holtz), embossing machine (Sizzix), journaling cards (Project Life), markers (Spectrum Noir), paint (Smooch), trim (?), pen (Project Life) and electronic die cutter, cartridge and software (Cricut).

   Of course, I found a mood board I loved and I had to search for a photo to use. I ended up using a week in the life photo I took a few month's ago. I journaled about my favorite fall things, apples and pumpkins.

A Fruity Layout

This week's  is another sketch reveal over at Simple Sketches. This week's was a little dauting to me since the tilt was greater than I every do. 
In the end I love how it came out. 
Supplies: cardstock (The Paper Studio), pattern paper (Echo Park), stickers (American Crafts), washi tape (Scotch Expressions tape and ?), twine (Timeless Twine), diecutsThe Robin's Nest), diy enameled dots, stain (Tim Holtz), mask (Studio Calico), modeling paste, mist (Heidi Swapp), stamp (K & Co.), ink (Stampabilities), Veneers(Studio Calico), vellum (?) and doily
The subject of this pages is of the pear and apple trees on a property we own. We just got it this year and didn't know that these we on it sinc we looked at it in the winter. I have to say the apples are crisp, sweet but is slightly sour. I love them. The pears I have yet to try.
On this page I got to use a really old piece of vellum from my first scrapbook paper I ever bought. I think I got it at Meijer or Target. The newest item I used on here were some wood veeners I friend from online sent me. So as you can tell I like to mix my supplies so nothing gets wasted.
Be sure to stop by Simple Sketches every Saturday to see a new sketch and a great reveal.
