You know what? I've never done a color challenge before! This was not really as easy as it looks....at least not for me! And as usual, I'm running behind! Busy, busy week as always. But here it is. I really wanted to put together a Thanksgiving-themed card to wish you all a wonderful and blessed day. Hopefully, you will spend it surrounded by those you love.
The challenge was to use Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, Brocade Blue and any neutral. I used the Pumpkin Pie only on inking the leaves and shading with Chocolate Chip and Old Olive....an "interesting combo," but I did it!
As always, thanks for stopping by. Hope you will take some time to visit the other bloggers challenges.

The leaves on this are just gorgeous. The Sanded BG is one o my all time "favorite" background stamps. Great job with this challenge.
VERY pretty, Barb! That is a great set for this color combo.

Great card Barb! I love the photo corners and the gel pen highlighting on the leaves!
Very pretty, Barb, the colors just really 'pop'!
Those leaves are a WOW factor! Super layout, too!
Very pretty--the leaves are just as beautiful as the ones in my yard.
Love your choice of stamps Barb! Fantastic card.
Thank you, Everyone, for the compliments.
Stefanie referred to the use of the White Gel Pen, but I did not use one. The inks were sponged onto the rubber and then stamped onto Whisper White CS...that's why you see the white veins, or lines.
HTH!
Barbara
These colors are AMAZZZZZZZING!
