Autumn Greetings - CTD510

Hello, crafty friends! I hope your week is going well. It’s time for this week’s Color Throwdown Challenge.
For my card, I used the adorable Hello Bluebird stamp set Autumn Gatherings. I can’t seem to get enough of the cute Hello Bluebird stamp sets that I purcased. For this Autumn Gatherings stamp set, once you die cut the critter images, the arms are cut so that you can slide in your choice of the fun smaller images that come with the set, and there are a bunch of little items you can have them holding from an apple to an envelope. It makes creating a scene with these little guys super fun!
To create my card, I stamped several of the images from the Autumn Gatherings set and colored them using Copic markers, then die cut them out using the Autumn Gatherings dies.  I also used the cloud image from the Fall Friends stamp set and dies. I made a simple little scene using a kraft colored gingham piece of Doodlebug Designs paper, to ground my images, and a piece of watercolor paper which I watercolored using some Jane Davenport watercolors (70’s Eye Shadow) for my sky. Next I used the Gallery Frame 3 die and die cut it from pumpkin pie cardstock. I adhered all three pieces together and then stamped my sentiment from the set. After that, I added some white Gelly pen to my images and used a Glaze pen on their noses and eyes to make them glossy then added foam tape to the three main characters and adhered them to my scene.
