Our August hostess, Loretta is challenging the OCC and YOU to create a card or project today using the NEW IN COLORS from Stampin Up! If you don't have the exact colors you can, of course ,use something close to it.

So please join us, get your stamps and Go Get Inky! For a close up view on the OCC's great projects for this week please visit the OCC Ladies on their blogs -Silke Ledlow, Jennifer Meyer, Frances Byrne, Loretta Lock and Joycelyn Turner.

I was in the mood to color. So color I did! I used Copics to color my Harvest Pickings Scene . I airbrushed around the edges with yellow and taupe, adding some shading underneath the image to help ground it. I inked up the Celebrate Tag with Crushed Curry and Dusty Durango, then trimmed it out and roughed up the edges a bit before sliding it in between my layers. The IN COLOR card stock I used for today's challenge card are: Crushed Curry, Dusty Durango, Soft Suede, Soft Suede DP - and the reverse side of that was the tiny green polka dots. I embellished liberally (when don't I??) with Buttons, Silk Ribbon, Jewels, Border Punches and finished it off with what else, but a few doodle stitch marks. Finished card size is 6" Square.
