It is Thursday which means it is time for the Create with Connie & Mary Challenge.  This week we have a color challenge.  Yes, the challenges alternate weekly  between a sketch and a color combination.  

Isn't this a lovely Fall color combination?  I recently received the Sparkle of the Season bundle and thought it would be a perfect for this color challenge.  

I stamped the sentiment from the Sparkle of the Season stamp set in Cinnamon Cider ink and then embossed the So Saffron layer using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder.  This embossing folder adds texture and gives the cardstock an aged look.  I lightly added some Cinnamon Cider ink using a Blending Brush around the area the wreath would be placed.  I splattered watered down Cinnamon Cider ink using a Water Painter.  

I layered a Soft Succulent wreath over a Cinnamon Cider wreath. I dabbed a little Cinnamon Cider ink on some of the Soft Succulent leaves and also on the So Saffron flowers.  The centers of the flowers are pearls that I colored using the Dark Cinnamon Cider Stampin' Blends.

Inside I used another sentiment from the Sparkle the Season stamp set, thankful for you.  I also stamped a few leaves in So Saffron and Soft Succulent ink.  

Be sure t check out what the rest of the design team created for the color challenge!  Thank you for stopping by!
