An Autumn smile

Hi there!

Today I am joining my friends at Time out challenges and the wonderfully talented Joan Bardee who is the muse this week at Muse card club .


Smile card in Autumn colors


I used leftovers from THIS card I made a while ago. This time I didn't use the cut piece, but instead used it as a stencil for my background. I used Hero arts ink cubes in the following colors:

From bottom up... Pale Tomato ~ Orange soda~ Soft Cantaloupe ~ Butter bar.


I think Joan's inspiration is quite obvious ... I followed the layout and colors and also used a flower as focal point .

The challenge at Time out is an : "Inspired by words" challenge :

" Autumn... the years loveliest smile" . I went with the smile sentiment and Autumn colors.

That's it for now... I will be back later today with Case this sketch and Seize the birthday DT inspiration!

Thanks for visiting me today !

Super dat je weer meedoet bij TIME OUT! En heel gaaf is het als je zomaar een mooi stencil "overhoud" van een andere kaart; de gesponsde achtergrond is prachtig! Mooi ontwerp, mooie kleuren; een genot weer om naar te kijken! Hoop dat je een fijn week gepland hebt! Groetjes, Gerrina
