Challenge me

Hi everyone, hope you are having a great day! I have a couple challenge cards to share with you. The first is from the color challenge yesterday on SCS. The colors were artichoke, riding hood red and basic grey. Here is my version:



I used the hanna stamps challenge sketch by Amanda this week for my layout. I stamped Riley, colored him with copics and cut using my nesties. I sponged around him while it was still in the die and I did the same for the sentiment. I used a very thin matting of white to make the colors pop a bit. I accented the sentiment with 3 tiny rhinestones and added some snowflake stickers in the corner with rhinestones. I finished off by adding one of my favorite products to the snow and ski poles- shimmerz of course!!

My second card today uses the sketch challenge that was posted on SCS today.



I stamped this great newly released image from DRS designs with choc chip ink and colored it with prismapencils and gamsol. I stamped my blocks with my leaf stamp (also a DRS new release) in ruby red, pumpkin and olive on pumpkin CS and the long block with my leaf edger stamp in choc chip. I then sponged the edges with cocoa and stitched all of them to my choc chip layer. I matted that onto some bazzill bling and attached 3 brads in the corner before adhering to my chocolate base. I also tied my grosgrain ribbon around before adding to the base. Lastly I attached my main image.
