Sugar Pea Designs * August Mix It Up Challenge

Hello there and welcome to another Sugar Pea Mix It Up challenge inspiration for you. I went for the pretty fall color combo and did a lot of die cutting and just a bit of no-line coloring.

First, I stamped the raccoon and the pumpkins in Antique Linen Distress Ink. This is my favorite ink for no-line coloring. I colored the little cutie with watercolors and cut him out. Yes, raccoons aren't light brown but hey, that's the freedom you have in crafting, right?

Then, I did some die cutting. I love the patterned paper packs SPD sells, they are so pretty and I found just the perfect colors to match the challenge combo. I die cut a polaroid frame from the forrest paper, two skinny banners from a reddish orange and a dark blue and the word enjoy from white paper and a shadow from heavyweight vellum. To add a bit of texture to my background, I also die cut the Woodgrain Journal Card. And then, I just had to arrange everything and adhere it with glue and/or foam tape.

For my sentiment, I wanted it to match the color combo as well, so I stamped it in a dark blue Distress Oxide Ink. It's actually just a part from a bigger sentiment but that's the cool thing here, you can mask off parts to customize it.

We would love to see what you come up with!
