Fall Birthday Something to Celebrate

Hey there,

So glad you stopped by!  I decided to play along with the colour challenge over at The Paper Players as well as the sketch challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches.  I was looking for some inspiration to create a birthday card for my dad who lives all the way in New Brunswick!  I don't get to see him often, so I always like to make an extra special card to send. 

 

 
Aren't they fun!  I just had to use the colour challenge with some fall thinlits and stamps and the layout is perfect of showcasing some favourite cut outs.  

Here is the card I create with these as my inspiration....

I love the way this sketch allowed for a beautiful frame for this fall picture.  

 

I have to be honest, it was a little hard to just stick to the three colours - so I threw some Whisper White in there to assist.  But I do love how it turned out. 

The Patterned Pumpkins thinlits look fabulous in these colours.  I just can't get enough of this cute chubby cut-out pumpkin!  I see it everywhere!  I love the leafy thinlits in Crushed Curry and Early Espresso, perfectly fall. 

I even added one of the little swirly ques inside and tiny little pumpkin - don't forget to pretty up the inside.  It's a nice surprise for the person receiving it. 

Be sure to stop by and see all of the wonderful creations made with these challenges in mind.

Happy Stampin'
