This is my submission for CC166 and it also fits Mojo37 sketch (see Poetic Artistry Blogspot).
The color challenge for today was to use Pumpkin Pie, Ruby Red and Soft Sky on our card. When I first read the colors I thought "yuck!" But, then I thought about my funky hippie Wanda in the Words By Wanda set. I knew immediately what I wanted to do. The hardest part was getting the little tags to work for the Mojo Monday sketch.
I stamped Wanda in Stazon Jet Black, watercolored with ink and markers, and used some Prisma Pencils and gamsol. I Cuttlebugged the pumpkin dp (IRL this is a perfect match to purely pumpkin). I used the tiny flower from Simply Said to stamp all the colors on the soft sky panel. I stamped the second part of the sentiment in single lines, lining up the words to fit in my word window punch, then punched for the tags required by the mojo sketch.
This sketch definitely took me places I'd never had gone on my own, but I do think it came out cute, so thanks Emily for this fun color challenge!
What do you think?
