Another PHABULOUS PHINDY's Place Challenge

 Hello there!  Another week has just flown by, I can't believe how fast time is passing.
Here we are in the midst of Autumn, and here in NY State, the leaves have all changed colors, and are covering the ground in some areas.  I LOVE the Colors of Autumn!

I thought it would be perfect to combine the Fall colors with this weeks challenge over at Phindy's Place Challenge Blog.  The challenge is really not to much of a challenge... LOL
All that we need to do, is to use our favorite color or colors.  So since my favorite colors are Purple and Teal combined, I made sure to use this darling little "Twick or Tweet" image from Phindy's Shop, and color her in Purples and Teals.

The problem I had was that I sooooo very desperately wanted to portray these BEAUTIFUL Autumn colors that I'm surrounded with.  So I finally decided on putting this little Phindy's cutie under a Maple Tree. 

The card feels a little bit "Plain" but this is a color challenge, and I really wanted to show off some of my most favorite colors.


I used a small fiskars maple leaf punch to punch out several different maple leaves, using several different DP's, in order to get the Fall Foliage colors that I'm seeing on a daily basis this time of year.  And of course this darling Phindy's image is standing under that maple tree, I think she's a little bit shy about going up and ringing that door bell, and asking for a Treat!  What do you think?

The card was a little bit time consuming with adding all these punched leaves, but I have to admit that I am in LOVE with the colorful outcome.

I hope you'll all take the time to visit Phindy's Place Challenge Blog, and hopefully play along with us this week.  Your Favorite Color - the challenge couldn't be easier!!!

Thanks for stopping by.  We have LOTS going on next week, over at Phindy's Paper Craft Planet group.  We are celebrating Phindy's PCP Group reaching 1,000 members....  You may just want to go check it out!
