Just Dream....

Pumpkin, coffee or nutmeg anyone?? Did I get your attention? Well, now that I have it, that's the color challenge for Impression Obsession this week! It's actually making me hungry! :-) The challenge is simple, use those colors, and use some IO stamps and... you could win a $25 gift certificate to the Impression Obsession store! You can check out the challenge HERE.

Moving on to my creation.... I guess you could say I picked an oldie-but-goody stamp! This stamp is called Going Home and it was just too fun to color!

After stamping in Memento Tuxedo Black on white card stock, I picked up my Copics to color this and used Y21, Y23, YR04, E25, E33, Y35, Y38, E08, YG03, YG00, B0000, R49, R35, W05, and W00. After I colored it up, I did a little paper piercing, added some flat backed faux nail heads, some brown ribbon and then matted it up on some Kraft paper that was decked out with the Cover-A-Card Wood Grain background stamp. The sentiment is from the Word Frames set. And... done!

Here's a close up...
So, I hope you make time to pay! If you need a little extra inspiration, be sure to hop on over to see what the rest of the IO DT whipped up!

I can honestly say, I cannot believe it's Thursday. Where does the week go? This weekend will be full of 8th grade football and hopefully good weather to watch my dd on the offensive and defensive line. It's funny, I really need a "Football for Dummies" book! I'm kind of learning the rules as I go! :-)

Hope you have fun weekend plans! I'll see you back here soon!

Gorgeous coloring and card! That woodgrain is super cool. I have new stampS ;) that I need to see about inking up, but I am too busy doing things like painting and hanging drapes. I think tomorrow I may see if Jeff will let me help him with a little tile project. Depends on if he's over having to sand the drips I left up near the ceiling in the bathroom - - my Dad never let me near a roller... Hey, when did "dd" start playing 8th grade football??
