Gnomes for Autumn...

I've created two cards recently using the Gnomes for Autumn Special...

This one is traditionally what the kit portrays...I did add some of the NEW Irresistibles Cardstock for the 'notebook paper panel'...

BUT THIS ONE is totally different! One of the YT Collabs I'm a part of featured a video from my CTMH Sister, April Meirer, where she made a more masculine version of the Gnome. I LOVED this alternative and decided to run with it and also use the braids to make the little Gnome suspenders...

I used The Good Life paper for this card as well as two NSM Stamp Sets - It's Your Birthday (balloon and inside sentiment) and All the Best Wishes (outside sentiment). I added highlights using my White Gel Pen and some Pencils on the beard.

I used the ombre/rock-n-roll ink technique for the balloon and inside sentiment...

If you're on Instagram, head on over there to see these cards come to life in one of my reels!

More new colors...

Let's take a look at some more of the NEW COLORS that debuted last month.

We have some pretty close cousins to older colors, if you've been around a while!

I'm curious to know your thoughts? Any colors you just absolutely LOVE...any older colors these remind you of? Let me know in the comments or contact me on social media where conversations about these colors are already happening.
