ihp Design Team Challenge!

It's challenge day for the team from i {heart} papers. It's our first challenge since the new goodies from CHA have arrived, so this month we're hosting a "free" challenge.  That way everyone can play with their favorite new toys and tools!

Even in Florida, the last several days have been a bit cooler!  Can't help but look forward to the arrival of Fall!  I love these warm colors, and this time of year is truly my favorite for stamping!  Hopefully my card, with its distressed "Farmer's Market" yardstick designer paper and sign-post style sentiment, makes you think of a trip to the old country store!

The orange, gold and dark brown color scheme is the theme for this week's Our Craft Lounge challenge which fit perfectly with my plans to use my new Crate Paper designer paper and a new Fall Sunflower "single" from Our Craft Lounge.  I love these new smaller sized sets!  They are a little smaller and less expensive than a full sized stamp set, so if you want to order a handful of stamps for various occasions or themes, these make it more affordable!  They're made of cling rubber,  and most include not only a great line art image but several sentiments as well.  Summer CHA was the first time OCL has released this new mini format, and I think it was a great idea!
