Happy Monday! I usually tend to detest Mondays as there always seems to be something going wrong (and news of a Canada Post strike first thing this morning confirmed as such) - BUT. I got these cards made and the video edited and uploaded so I say that's a GREAT start to the week LOL!
As usual I'm ridiculously behind with the current Color Throwdown Challenges - getting sick and then my kids getting sick really threw a wrench into everything (thankfully everyone is feeling better!). However I still wanted to play along with last weeks challenge:
You can check out the challenge and what the rest of the Design Team created with these colors HERE <-----click!
Here's what I made:
I used Simon's November Card Kit to create my cards as so many of the elements were perfect for this color challenge - plus I ALWAYS need more thank you cards!
If you missed my Unboxing Video for this kit you can check that out here:

I gold heat embossed the sentiments, and clear heat embossed some of the leaves from the Thanks and Leaves stamp set. I then sponged Peeled Paint Distress Ink over them, which were rested by all the heat embossing. I stamped more of the leaves with Peeled Paint Distress Oxide ink, and then splattered water on it before die cutting the panels with one of Simon's Stitched Rectangle wafer dies.
I finished off the insides of the cards by stamping this large sentiment from the Thanks and Leaves stamp set with the Peeled Paint Distress Oxide ink and that was it!
