This week, Amber decided to combine the sketch with a colour challenge of brown, turquoise and orange. As it turns out, these are this week's Curtain Call colours, so I got a two-fer :) Absolutely love this colour combination!
I pulled out Verve's Autumn Splendor, which I won through the release sketch challenges for the last release, and went to work. Just love how Julee included the same shape leaves in different sizes as well as just their outlines. Endless possibilities and combinations!
I stamped three of the small leaf images on the turquoise background panel with VersaMark to create a bit of a pattern (bit hard to see in the picture), and then used one of the large leaf images as my focal point. The sentiment is a bonus "thanks for your order" stamp Julee included in one of my orders a while back. The bling on the focal panel is a la Maureen. Love how she often adds little touches of bling on her cards. In my case, it filled in the empty space on the right of the leaves perfectly :)The more I look at this colour combination, the more I want to make another card using it! Think I know what I'll be doing today LOL! Have a great day!

Beautiful card!
Isn't this a fab color combo? You always have me adding Verve sets to my wish list! The leaf stamps are wonderful, and I love the little details like the scallops below the sentiment and the perfectly placed gems. Wonderful use of the colors this week!
I totally LOVE everything about this! The colors, the layout, the stamps...AWESOME!
ah, these were fabulous colours :) I was so happy to see them again after the VLV challenge :) Love the bling...isn't it fun to add? Just a little bit of sparkle and WOW! So you have your stamps!! Did you have them mailed to your US PO box? I still don't have mine and ordered the Friday afternoon of the release! EEK! I really would like to use them this weekend :) Your card is making me impatient again!! LOL
Love your sweet card Marisa! Those stamped leaves are pretty! :)
Beautiful, Marisa!! I love those colors AND this sketch. Those leaf sprigs are lovely :)

Super cute Marissa!!! Totally adorable and great job combining challenges!
Very pretty! I like the versamarked background!
Marisa, this is wonderful! Love how you blended these colors! The touches of gems are fabulous, too! Lovely card! Hope you are dong great!
Gorgeous colors and I see those wonderful leaves you stamped on the turquoise. What a wonderful prize you won and that sentiment is just lovely, too.
Wow how lucky that they both had the same color combos.. That never happens.. LOVE this card. You are right about the little bit of bling.. Great job.
Beautiful card Marisa! You really made these colors sing--love the touch of orange in the center and the bit 'o' bling is absolutely perfect!
Gorgeous, Marisa! Love what you've done with the color combo and the sketch!
what a totally gorgeous creation, Marisa! thanks for playing the curtain call!
As soon as Julee sneak peaked these leaves, I knew they had your name written all over them! I'm so excited to see what all you are going to create with them... This first creation is AMAZING! LOVE those leaves in the middle and the little touch of bling (I think Maureen's on to something there... lol). And the aprong lace punch looks like the ribbon! How fun is that?!
I'm so with you - love these colors together!! Beautiful card!
Lovin those leaves!! Love the colors and the way you used the sketch!! Pearls and a little bling are perfect!!
