Color Hues Challenge #121 - ORANGE & BROWN

Hello friends.  Time for a new challenge here at Color Hues, and our hostess Sheri would like to see us use ORANGE & BROWN for the next two weeks.

I have a fun little Halloween card using these colors for my youngest grandson, and I think he'll get quite a kick out of it as the pup looks a lot like his dog Vinny!  Take a look...


Isn't that pup in his pumpkin costume just the cutest?!  He's from SB's Pupkin Dies and was cut with Acorn cs (SB) and Pumpkin Pie cs (SU!).  My background panel was die cut with an oval and then embossed using SSS's Falling Leaves ef. I ink blended around the edges and then attached to a cream colored card base.


My sentiment is from MFT's Spooktacular Friends and I added a little bit of twine and a orange gem to finish off this card.  I think if I include a treat with the card, he'll be one happy boy!

Make sure you check out what the rest of the DT and our Special GD Valerie have come up with using this color pairing and then play along with us...you can find it all right HERE.  This challenge is open till Friday, Nov. 14th @ 9:00AM. 

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

    I know your little guy loved his card AND his treat! It's so extra special that it looks like his Vinny. These colors look wonderful for fall, and the embossing folder made the perfect background. Too cute, Marcia!
