The first card is for a challenge where you had to show Fall on the Farm. I used my coffee cup dies with leaves and pumpkins to make a scene. Then I stamped and die cut this cute cow. I wanted the cow to have some pumpkin spice coffee. To make it look more like a farm, I added designer paper behind the image and coffee cup.

Our challenge for this card was, Laundry.  I stamped these little ones and colored them with Copic Markers. I colored the sky with Copic Markers as well then added black behind the image. I added it to a gingham designer paper background.

For this card we needed to show leaves on a faux silk background. I chose to make a baby wipe ink pad then stamp my leaves with it. I cut one leaf out to use in the circles. I dry embossed the leaf and circles.

Here is a video to show you how to do the faux silk technique.

Take a look at the three cards and challenges. What would you use to do these challenges? This was a fun way to stamp today. I didn't have to come up with ideas, I let someone else do that. All I had to do was find a stamp and decide what to do with it.

I'll have more of these tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by.

Blessings,

Sue
