Today's HYCCT challenge is to use humor and sewing! ACK, time to bring on the faux! I used three Art Impression stamps (two for the ladies and one for the fence) and a Eureka stamp for the sentiment. I thought it was funny...anyway! I used a faux rub on (in gold under the brads) but it didn't really look right. So I just added a few stitches on each end of the sentiment.
This is also for the Color Challenge. Mary selcted Rich Razzleberry, More Mustard and Midnight Muse. The dessert is chevrons. I was going to count my rub ons as tiny chevrons, but I think I better just skip dessert! LOL These colors seemed to go well with a fall theme. I dont have any of those colors, so I tried to get them close (sorry). Anyway, hope it will bring a smile to someone!
Thanks for the challenges and thanks for taking a peek!

Too funny, Kathleen!! Brilliant card - your image and sentiment are so good it would be easy to overlook your fantastic colouring of the image and fence and the perfect dp in the bg!!!
