GRS is Cooking Up Some Fall Challenge Fun!

Today is our first team challenge post with Gourmet Rubber Stamps. Our challenge for November was to be inspired by the photo above. The card that I created features an image entitled "Fall", from the Marsha McCarthy line from GRS, simply stamped in Rich Cocoa ink on this softly patterned paper from Best Creation. This paper was used as the background as well, and is softly mottled with several of the shades in the challenge palette. A "Fanciful Flourish" from the Lizzie Anne Designs' line was stamped in the upper corner. The "Gratitude" sentiment from LAD "Everyday Sayings" was stamped on a panel from Memory Box. To highlight the fall theme, I punched a border in kraft cardstock with my EK Argyle edger, and layered a Creative Impressions Leaves strip over the top. My favorite touch in the inspiration pic is the hint of aqua on the acorn and leaves, so this became the card and mat color for the card. Be sure to check out what the rest of our team (including our two newest members, Joy and Kelli!) have created for the challenge. I always love to see what a different take others come up with on these challenges. Come play along, we'd love to see what YOU come up with as well!
