Thanks....for dinner!

Hi All and happy Wednesday!

This week is just flying on by, I can't believe we are already half done another week. Too bad Summer always goes so quickly, but Winter seems to last forever. Before we know it, it's going to be Fall!

And speaking of Fall, Whimsy Stamps is sponsoring the challenge over at Color Throwdown and the colors remind me of Fall season. The challenge this week is to use the colors, or something similar, of Tangerine Tango, Basic Gray, Blush Blossom, and Really Rust.

I created this thank you card with my Whimsy Duck and Animals Accessories Sets. The cardstock colors are Basic Gray, Really Rust, and Pumpkin Pie. I didn't have the Tangerine or Blush papers. I also used a piece of Fancy Pants DSP that had some of the same colors for this color combo challenge. These colors also work with this week's Papertake Weekly challenge of choosing colors to fit the seasons, in this case Fall/Autumn.

I used the sketch from Stamp with Fun to create this card and added some neglected pewter hardware from my stash to fit the challenge at My Time to Craft. I also embellished with grosgrain ribbon, pewter brads, and Prima flowers. I added one button in a blush tone to fit the Color Throwdown challenge.

Thanks for visiting today. Hope you have a fabulous Wednesday! And if you're up for a challenge, head on over to Color Throwdown and enter for your chance to win some Whimsy Stamps! Happy stamping! :)

Oh no, let's just hope the duck is on a diet or something. That worm is too cute to be eaten! Super cute card, though! Love those bright colors.
