Autumn Recipe October 11-17

Dispel the Monday blues with this Monday morning to Sunday night challenge.

Moderator: Ellie

Fall is generally when it gets cool enough to start cooking and baking again. So, your challenge is a recipe challenge.
Make a card/tag/paper project for whatever occasion you want with the following ingredients:
*2 patterned papers
*3 bits of nature (apples, pumpkins, leaves, flowers, creatures, etc.)
*1 wreath
*5 colors including some of my favorite color - teal, add some of your own favorite color (let us know what it is). The colors include your neutrals: black, white, browns. You DON'T have to include all the colors in your patterned papers, if they have lots of colors, but make sure at least one of your 5 colors is included in the papers.
*Make sure you knead at least a bit - use embossing, dry or heat
*And don't forget to add some sprinkles on top - a bit of glitter, sequins, or something else small and shiny.

I can't wait to see what you cook up!

A friend told me I did this backwards, as I came up with the recipe, then created my examples, but it's not as much of a challenge for me the other way around. Besides, I had fun coming up with the recipe.

Decided to make this while I was waiting for it to get light enough to walk. I didn't have anything in mind when I started and just let my supplies take me where they did. The hardest part of this was finding 2 patterned papers that didn't overwhelm the rest of it. But I think I included all the ingredients: 2 patterns, 3 bits of nature (flowers, bird, bees), 1 wreath, 5+ colors including Golda & my favorite color of teal, heat embossed words and shiny bits.

I needed to make this today because leaving tomorrow for camp and closing it up for the Season...
I followed the recipe...2 pattern paper...3 bits of nature ( pumpkins, leaves, acorn & more)...
an oval wreath...5 colors ( yellow, green, brown, purple, orange).. sprinkles ( sequins & gold border strip)...sentiment is embossed on the tag .
Right now my favorite is teal I think it goes so well with Fall colors.

Hello everyone, I am hoping I got the recipe correct. Let's see two patterned paper? check, 3+ bits of nature as I couldn't resist (spider, centipede, eyeballs, 3 flowers? check, 1 wreath? check, 5 colors including Golda's favorite color - teal, black, brown, grey and one little orange (my favorite) - check, embossing and sanding to show off the embossing? check and finally some teal sparkly nuvo drops and white sequins - check! This was alot of fun and I have never done a Halloween card using teal before and I used a teal marker to color in my pattern paper. I really like how it turned out.
