Time Out #299 - Photo Inspiration

We have an interesting photo to inspire your card at Time Out.

Here's a close up view.

I have a die from Altenew called Framed that I hadn't used in ages and knew I could do something with it to replicate that wall.

Taking a photo of this card was a horror story with all the gold and holographic paper but I love how the card turned out.  I already had the textured gold cardstock and embossed the one in the upper right, layering the frames for dimension.  The sentiment is from Spellbinders and the mirrors were arranged on woodgrain paper. 

I thought you might like to see a picture of my brother's half bath.  His wife has decorated with mirrors like our inspiration photo.

Lawn Fawn is our sponsor for this photo challenge with the winner getting $25 in store credit.

Color Hues #119

My friend Marcia picked the colors for Color Hues and they work beautifully for this time of year.  Somewhere I saw a wreath made of gourds and wanted to make one for this challenge.

The dies are Honey Bee's Fall Bounty colored with Distress Inks in Scattered Straw, Fossilized Amber and Rusty Hinge along with Altenew's Warm Sunshine, Honey Drizzle and Red Jasper.  The biggest gourds also have a spritz of Fossilized Amber Distress Spray.  A Honey Bee sentiment and Burlap embossing folder complete the card. 

I'm still trying to get my stuff organized after unpacking all I took to Michigan (plus things I bought while there) and in trying to make labels my printer quit.  I guess they're not supposed to last longer than 10 years.  😖  I'm researching new ones and when I decide I'll be back in business.

Inkspirational #351

Inkspirational has a mood board full of mushrooms so I got out mine from The Greetery and made a card.

The caps were cut from a scrap of red, shaded with Walnut Stain, and the stems were cut from Spicy Yogurt.  The trees are a TH birch tree die, inked with Hickory Smoke and layered onto some Spellbinders blue denim.  I left off a sentiment for the time being.

Freshly Made Sketches #706

I'm finally back in my main studio and jumped right in to making a card for Freshly Made Sketches.

I turned Tim's Festive Wreath into a Halloween one by adding skulls, a spider and crossbones from Tim's Frightful things.  The orange background was stamped with Honey Bee's web in Versa Mark and covered with Perfect Pearls.  The sentiment paper is from Doodlebug.
