October Holidays/Colors

  It's time for a new challenge over at The Outlawz Twisted Thursday and the optional twist is October Holidays and Colors!  So, how does that inspire you?

I want to share several projects to show the versatility of these amazing Papers and Elements from Decosse's Dynamite Doodles, the sponsor of our challenge!  

At the start of the post is a digital layout created in Canva and finished in PhotoScape.  

My digital layout is off to the following challenges:

Crafter's Cafe:  AG opt Include an Animal
Classic Design:  AG opt Autumn/Fall
Moving Along with the Times:  Autumnal Colours

Next, I have a trio of Thinking of You Cards.

Video Tutorial Below

My trio of cards is off to the following challenges:

CD Sunday Plus:  AG using Digital, CD, DVD
As You Like It:  Fav Cardbase Shape  I like the US standard 4.25 x 5.5 inch.  I suppose I use it most often because #1 it mails inexpensively; #2 I have a ton of envelopes that size!  hahaha

How about a duo of Halloween themed cards.
The pumpkin is on a spring!


Video Tutorial Below

My duo of cards is off to the following challenges:

Allsorts:  AG
The Outlawz Tuesdays Color:  I used orange, yellow, black with Halloween Twist
Double D:  To Spook or Not


...and lastly...how about a fun Trick or Treat Bag!
