This is for two challenges. The first is the sketch challenge that I didn't have time to do. The second is for the Twisted Sistah's challenge. We would love you to play along with us. If you do you need to use the Keywords TSC1014. The challenge is to have something metalic on your card.
I started with a base of Soft Suede. The large panel is Pool Party dp. My next two layers were framed with More Mustard. On my image panel I could not get the MS punch to punch the dp. Its too thick. The first image has Spice Cake dp on it. On my image panel I used a leaf from Gently Falling and stamped it in Versa Mark then used copper ep. This is my favorite color of ep. I love it. Oh I also did acorns the same way. I added a sentiment which was not on the sketch. Hope the sketch police don't come knocking on my door. After heat setting the ep I used a finger dauber to apply Pool Party around the image. I like how this turned out. Thanks for looking at my card.

Great for the sketch and the twisted sister challenge. Love the warm browns in your dp with those little dots of blue. Very pretty. I like the copper in your sentiment. Nice touch.

Good for you, Sylvia, this is one great fall card - I am partial to browns, so the soft suede was a good choice, and the Pool Party really looks spectacular with it. I have GOT to find me some COPPER EP - it looks amazing with the brown especially!! Fantastic card for this weeks challenge!! Way to go, Sistah!

Sylvia, I love the challenge you issued this week. Metal is a fav of mine, and I love your metallic embossing on this gorgeous image. Your sponging and papers are beautiful Sistah. Thanks for the encouragement you bring my way. LYMI
