New month, new mini and a new challenge card with PPA

I am so pumped...it is a new month, a new mini catalog (holiday) and a new challenge card with Pals Paper Arts, PPA109.  The challenge was a color challenge using Calypo Coral, Riding Hood Red, and Basic Gray.  I used all three in cardstock and ink pads plus a little Very Vanilla card stock.  I used the new stamp set from the mini holiday catalog, Festive and Fun.  See that background...I used the French Foliage stamp set with all three colors stamping out the leaf.  I am really starting to make my own design backgounds that way...see more on Sept 10 when I do a blog hop with Hopping Just for the Fun of it All Holidays is the theme for that Blog Hop.

The SU Watercolor pencils gets over looked sometimes and this really helped pop'ed this card out, just color it in, don't have to use any water....

Supplies for this card besides basic supplies are:

Card Stock: Calypo Coral, Riding Hood Red, Basic Gray, Very Vanilla.

Stamp Sets:  Festive and Fun, French Foliage, blocks D, H.
