Melanie, this card has all the brilliance of the rich fall colors! Love the panel at an angle and the shine of the bow and sentiment. Thanks so much for sharing this with the PPA color challenge this week. Hope to see you in our gallery often!
ReplyDeleteMelanie, absolutely beautiful. You really captured the colors well. Super job, especially your off center pieces. Love the entire card! Thank you for your beautiful work of art and for playing with us for PPA321.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great combination of the two challenges, Melanie. Love the way you've used that Designer Paper as the background for your festive wreath. The Elegant Eggplant looks wonderful with that layer of glossy accents. It gives it a very solid look and wonderful sheen for both your sentiment and your ribbon. Thanks for sharing and joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful Melanie! I love this color combination and your wreath turned out perfectly! Love the shimmery bow. :)
ReplyDeleteVery sweet card! I really like how you combined these colors and the pattern really pops! Thank you for joining us this week at the Pals Paper Arts Challenge!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card combining the two sketches. I never have luch stamping this wreath. You dud a wonderful job with it! Thanks for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday this week! Hope to see you again soon!
ReplyDeleteGreat card Melanie! Love that panel of dsp, but the bow covered with glossy accents is the highlight of your card for me! Thanks so much for joining us this week for the Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge!
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining us at the Watercooler this week Melanie. I love the colours and the wreath on this card. Very colourful and nice layout.
ReplyDeleteGreat Autumn card, Melanie! You combined the two challenges beautifully. Thanks for joining us this week at Watercooler Wednesday Challenges.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely fall card! The glossy accents are perfect with these beautiful colors. Thanks for joining Pals Paper Arts this week!
ReplyDeleteThat background paper has such a perfect design for fall - and the wreath is just the right colour combination. An awesome autumn card as the season is in full swing with the leaves changing (maybe not in Arizona, but in other locations...)
ReplyDeleteAlmost looks like the one panel you have on an angle was stamped...I didn't see any listed but it looked like the stamps we got from the Flower Market, which you have inspired me to use those stamps much like your design paper. Beautiful die on the wreath and the bow looks like glass.
