Color Hues #93

There's nothing much else to do when it's raining at the lake except read a book and take time out to make a card.  This one is for Color Hues.


All the die cuts are from Honey Bee's Fall Bouquets.  The pumpkin was cut from orange cardstock and inked with Snapdragon in the ridges and white for a highlight.  The sunflowers were cut in yellow and inked with Chamomile while the centers were cut from dark brown for the bottom layer and kraft, inking the kraft with Mocha just like the leaves.  The centerpiece was added to a background embossed with Honey Bee's Burlap folder.  This sure brought some sunshine to a dreary day.

Thanks for dropping by.  Have a great weekend.

Reading and making cards sound like wonderful rainy (or any weather, actually) day activities. Your sunflower filled pumpkin is soooo pretty; lovely fall decor. Thrilled you played along with us at Colour Hues.
