You did such a beautiful job of coloring those mice, and the accompanying apples and pumpkins, Kara. The die cut panel was a fun way to display them. I love your choice of patterned papers on the second card and of course there are more wonderfully colored pumpkins.
ReplyDeleteYour cards are fantastic and an inspiration...talk about thinking outside the box, your designs are terrific for showcasing those two little pumpkins! You never cease to amaze me! Heart Hugs, col
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. Love the mice and the colors you chose and I echo Bobby, the die cut panel is a perfect choice to display them. Love the colorful pumpkins and the patterned paper you used. I hope after October, I can get back into having time to do these challenges.

Your first card with the mice (one of my favorite MFT sets!!), pumpkins, and apples is absolutely FABULOUS!! The coloring, the blending, and all the framing...so darn CUTE and wonderful!

And I already miss you again...it was SOOOO good to see you on Sunday and can't wait until we can get together again!! Love ya!! :0)
ReplyDeleteKara, I am so happy to have one of those darling mice sitting in place of pride on my craft table! Thanks so much for sharing - I've yet to eat one of your chocolates - seems I found a cold during our visit Sunday - so I'll save them for a feel-better day!

Two delicious harvest scenes, Kara ... as you now know, I spent rather a while enjoying all the beautiful detailing on the mouse-y one, it's brilliant ... and I love all the depth and dimension on all those individually coloured and cut pumpkins, they're fabulous with those autumnal patterned papers! Big hugs and bisous, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteThose little mice are just too too cute, these cards are so beautifully coloured Kara (but of course they always are lol).
ReplyDeleteJust looking over the design team cards for this challenge. Your cards made me click over here to say WOW how beautiful they are! I really really love the one with the little frames and your inked background!! Gorgeous!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am completely blown away by your coloring talent Kara! These are both amazing, but that mouse card is STELLAR!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an abundant harvest for those lucky and adorable mice - with apples, pumpkins, and berries! Fabulous! And the collection of orange and white pumpkins on the second card are fun and look gorgeous with the patterned papers!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh ... these are both to creative and fun!! LOVE the first card with all the compartments of adorable fall items and those adorable mice!! Sweet with the sentiment in the center. Your second card is so artsy with the frame make out of different patterned papers. Love the stacks of pumpkins. Your colouring is always amazing ... and you have done it again with both of these cards. Great work Kara! xx
ReplyDeleteOh my word!! I'm in awe of your creativity... The first card is incredible and I just can't stop looking at it!! How clever! And it's something I would definitely frame. Love the rows of pumpkins with your choice of papers... So earthy and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWOW these are both just amazing! Wonderful inspiration ... thanks!

Oh, my! These are both fantastic cards! Gosh, to pick a favorite is impossible. I especially love the grid with all those cute, colorful images, but looking again at the "thanks" with all the pumpkins, it's just beautiful. Lots of coloring and all so artfully accomplished. I'm so happy to see these cards in our Double D challenge!
ReplyDeleteTwo fantastic cards. I love the layout of your first card and the array of pumpkins look wonderful on your second card. xx
ReplyDeleteWow - such beautiful coloring on all of your images!! - love the grays and yellows on the block design and your fun row of pumpkins on the Thanks card!
ReplyDeleteWOW ! Two stunning cards, Kara ! I also have this stamp set but I've never done such gorgeous cards with it ! Your colouring is just fabulous and your designs so beautiful ! Two pieces of art ! Thanks so much for sharing and for inspiring.
ReplyDeleteThese are two fabulous cards and I'm totally in awe of your mouse one -the background inking and the colouring is gorgeous. I hope you don't mind me pinning it for inkspiration.
ReplyDeleteHey there, Kara (pronounced Cassandra)! I keep going back to check out your cards and how you've colored them. Your eyes see so much more than mine, and it blows what little mind I have left. These are perfect "harvest" cards. Sweet images, and btw...did you notice the white pumpkins at P&S last week? Yours are better, if you ask me! Give my regards to the fam, and soon we'll need to have a crafty sleep over!! We'll chat soon Cressida. Sending hugs in the meantime. xoxoxo ; ) Bev
ReplyDeleteTwo amazing cards, I just love your shading it is so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWOW... what fabulous inspiration for TWOFER!
ReplyDeleteLove your cards. The mouse set is also one of my favorites. Once you stamp and then color you have lots of pieces to play with. I made Thanksgiving cards using this set and have decided they will do just fine for holiday cards and therefore no Christmas cards from me. It has helped that I have selected to narrow my C list substantially. Have a good one.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing twofer you've created! I just love all those colorful pumpkins on the thank-you card, but those little mice popping out of the windows is beyond cute! Adorable cards, both of them!
ReplyDeleteTwo adorable card here Kara! I love the first card with all the little windows and the fun fall scenery behind each panel. All those pumpkins in the pumpkin patch is a great way to say thanks too. Both cards are fabulous and perfectly colored as always!
