Happy Labor Day! I'm sure like you I love having three day weekends and enjoying extra time at home and since we just got back from vacation this extra time is just what we need to get ready for the start of school tomorrow. I did have time to hop in the studio to make this fun card for the Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration Blog color sketch challenge. This was a great challenge sine I wouldn't have thought to pair these colors together but they really work. I'm so in love with the products in the new catalog so I decided to use them for his great fall themed card. I started with Hello Honey for the cardbase and then added a piece of Sahara Sand cardstock that I embossed with the Big Shot and Woodgrain Embossing folder (I used a sponge and the Sahara Sand ink to highlight the embossed detail).
For the main stamped image I used the Seasonally Scattered stamp set and inked my stamp up with Stampin' Write Markers for a rainbow type effect on the image. Next I used the Project Life Corner Rounder Punch on both the stamped piece and the Rich Razzleberry mat. I also sponged around the stamped piece with Sahara Sand ink.
Have you seen these new feather framelits and matching Four Feathers stamp set (so fun) so I stamped two of the feathers, cut them out with the framelits and then sponged around the edges with Sahara Sand ink before attaching them to the cardfront with a Linen Thread bow. The final touch is a nice big knot made with some Calypso Coral Chevron Ribbon.
What do you think? This card turned out even better than I had hoped and these colors really pop. Make sure to check out the other great projects the designers are sharing and come play along with us, it's lots of fun.

Enjoy the rest of your holiday weekend and the start of fall.
Happy crafting,
