Curtain Call Color Challenge: Act 6



I have been decorating the house a little for fall and have been looking online for some ideas. As I was searching, I found this beautiful autumn centerpiece called Silk Cone Hydrangea Centerpiece at Silkflowers.com. I love the rich tones in this earthy bouquet. The colors in the centerpiece look like Stampin' Up!'s Dusty Durango, Ruby Red, Mellow Moss & So Saffron. These colors will work wonderfully with a little Very Vanilla, don't you think? I can't wait to see what you all come up with!

To play along in the Curtain Call Color Challenge: Act 6, simply create a papercrafted project using these Stampin' Up! colors (or similar shades from other companies), post it on your blog or other public gallery (Splitcoaststampers, Paper Craft Planet, etc.) using the keywords Curtain Call, link your posting back here, and then come back to enter your name and URL in the Mr. Linky box. You have until Sunday, October 18th at noon (CST) to enter your project.

I will once again be picking my FAVORITE(s) Curtain Call Color Challenge submission(s) that will be announced as the Curtain Call Show Stopper at the end of the week!



Those who are chosen as Show Stoppers will receive this award to post on their blog and share the exciting news! I will be picking more than one Show Stopper each week depending on the number of entries there are. There will be awards given out for every ten Curtain Call Color Challenge entries!



I was inspired by the centerpiece to use my Autumn Splendor stamp set once again...I'm loving this set and am using it a TON! My card base is Dusty Durango layered with Mellow Moss and the Very Vanilla adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals. I used the two-step stamping technique with the leaves using Ruby Red, Mellow Moss and So Saffron ink. The main leaf panel was wrapped with a Very Vanilla 5/8" Grosgrain square knot. Finally, I used one of the greetings from the Grateful Greetings stamp set inked up with Dusty Durango ink.





Stamps: Autumn Splendor, Grateful Greetings
Paper: Dusty Durango, Mellow Moss, Very Vanilla
Ink: Ruby Red, Mellow Moss, So Saffron, Dusty Durango
Other: Very Vanilla 5/8" Grosgrain, Stampin' Dimensionals
