Three Challenges in One!





Today's card is one I have made for three challenges in one but, having made it I'm not sure whether it entirely fits the bill for two of them! I used the sketch from CAS - Colours & Sketches challenge site shown left (is there enough stamping?) I am also entering it for LIM - String or Twine (is it CAS enough?) and the SUO Challenge 82 - Harvest Time.
The base card is Crumb Cake, as is the semi-circle which was inked around the edge with Crumb Cake ink. The circle in the centre is Naturals Ivory and both circles were cut with dies from the Circles Collection Framelits. A sentiment from Four You was stamped in Crumb Cake on the central circle before adding the leaves which were cut using the Autumn Accents die and sponged using Crumb Cake, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red inks. For the twine I took a piece of Burlap Ribbon and separated some of the threads then tied around the top of the leaves in a knot. To finish the card I added some 'raindrops' to the leaves and circles using Crystal Effects.
Thanks for stopping by
