This challenge kept me in my craft room for a good part of the day playing with a bunch of the techniques Carla listed for us! There are some pieces in the garbage, but a variety of papers I will use for some cards in the future. This is the one I settled on to finish and post.
I rubbed the inks right onto the embossing folder and ran it through my machine. It's got a fun summery feel. I used the same folder with these two colors and some blue and the result is a more autumn feel. I used white embossing powder on the image panel and added a bow to the corner! The taupe colored card back pulls out some of the deep tones of the colors. Thanks for the technique challenge, Carla. It was a fun day of experimenting.

This is so much fun! Love the sentiment panel and the pretty colors. This reminds me of a sampler with an edge. You could always die cut some of your other panels. Glad you had a day of playing. Thanks for playing in my challenge, I’m impressed!!

Interesting that you got such a different feel just by adding one more colour. I love having a supply of backgrounds waiting to use - I'm sure you had fun with them. I like that beautiful ribbon paired with the checklist. I'd love to be able to check sleep soundly off tonight .
