Leaves Color Trends Challenge

Photo Credit

This challenge requires you to create a card, scrapbook layout, or altered item using the color challenge and leaves. It’s that time of year where leaves are everywhere. They are changing naturally in the outdoors and you can also find them in stores related to home decor. Perhaps stopping into a local store, such as Pier 1 Imports or Home Goods will give you the leaf inspiration you need to participate in this challenge. There are so many ways to add leaves to your designs, including stamping, die cutting, embossing, and also on patterned paper. We can’t wait to see what you create!

Upload a photo of your project to your blog or online gallery, such as Flickr, then copy the direct link to your project/post to the embedded link widget below or on one of the design team’s blogs. If you do not have a direct link to your blog/gallery posting that features the challenge, your link may be deleted. If it is deleted, no biggie, just come back and re-link the correct link! Only links left in the link widget will be considered for challenge submissions.

We will feature some “HOT” designs on a blog post about a week after the challenge ends. Check back on the blog or subscribe to the feeds so you will not miss it!
