Simply Handmade by Heather: Cupcake's Creations Color Challenge

Hello my lovely blog friends. Are you having a good start to your week so far? We have a warm front coming through. I woke up this morning and it was 72 degrees already.
I have some wonderful news. My blog friend Mona from Cupcake's Creations now has a color challenge. She has a beautiful inspiration photo for you to go by as well.

Now since it has been stormy my photo isn't the best. I will try taking another picture later and re post this. I finally got a hold of Labels 14 dies. I got them at Flourishes...and received them within 2 days of ordering.

I also used the sketch at Waltzingmouse to create this card. What better way to support my friend than to use her color challenge and the sketch for the Company she designs for? I hope you play along with her color challenge too. Look at these wonderful colors. Speaking of which...I got a huge bag of apples from a stand on the side of the road here. They look just like these.

Supplies:

Cardstock: PTI/Kraft, Rustic Cream

DP: Daisy D's

Stamps: Watlzingmouse

Ink: Martha Stewart/green, Memento/Tuxedo Black

Seam Binding: Bluebird Lane Etsy

Felt Poinsettia: Hero Arts

Thanks for stopping by,

Heather

I started making my CHRISTmas cards on Sunday.
I need to get hopping...I'm doing a table for an elementary school PTA bazaar and I need to have plenty...
Sunday I made reds/greens/cream and pinks/cream...last night I found some ice blue/cream vintage images and I'm in love with that color combo {{{with plenty of glitter}}}
I'll post some later :D
