Creative Confetti - Fab Finds

With the start of a new month, Creative Confetti has chosen a challenge that was REALLY a challenge for me.  We are to pick out a circular or catalog that inspired us and make a project.  Well, since so much is online now, we don't get the newspaper, so I had to dig out some catalogs and found one. It was called Costal Living and I really found several pictures that "spoke" to me.  I finally settled on this one that I love with the texture and soft fall colors of gray and blush orange. 

This is a calming picture and I was inspired by the texture in the quilt and the soft gray with a touch of black. I thought right away of a stamp set that I have not used yet.  

It think it worked well for these colors.  

Here is my card. 

I used the Feeling Fall stamp set by Marcella.  This is the first time I have used the cat and pumpkins.  I stamped in Antique Linen Distressed Ink for a no-line look, on watercolor paper.   Colored it with my distress markers. I used an EF that looked similar to the quilt and had to used several ink colors to get the tone of the quilt.  It is a bit darker than I wanted, but works.  I placed this panel on a layer of dark gray and then a base of light gray cardstock.  The black strip is from my stash and I have no idea what it was used for, but it is plastic and shiny and sticky.  It worked for the touch of black that I wanted.

 There will be a challenge each week for the next month and if you do them you will have four chances to win the prize.  Mostly I just love doing them for the creative fun. 

Thanks so much for stopping in to see more, I sure appreciate your comments and the time that you take to do them.
