It’s Thursday and time for another PALS Paper Arts Color Challenge. These colors say fall with flair, don’t they? I love Crisp Cantaloupe from the new In Color 2013-15 collection, and the Early Espresso adds a Pop! to the card. I kept the Summer Starfruit as an accent color with a slice of the ribbon peeking out on either side of the Espresso mat that also brings out the Starfruit color on the banner.

I lined the inside of the card with a piece of Spice Cake DSP and layered on a square of high quality printer paper left over from a book project. It seemed to need something, so I added the “Just Because” from the Vintage Verses set. The card is 4″ x 4″ but that’s no problem now that I have the Envelope Punch Board. Then, why not line the envelope?  What fun! and I have just the special person in mind to receive a short note and a sweet treat.

If you have time, hop on over to the PALS blog and check out all the great cards that have been posted there. Better yet, go to your craft area and pull out that cardstock. It’s time to play!

Thanks for stopping by!
