I am now hosting a sketch challenge on the
inchies_onexone group, a sketch for a regular sized card, embellished with an inchie. The twist is that the inchie has to be made by someone else, ideally one that was received in a swap. The first one is a simple one, only using one inchie.
The sentiment is from a TAC set, and the leaves are from an old retired SU set I haven't used in ages - I remembered I had them when I was contemplating the Autumn Leaves challenge at the
Cheerful Stamp Pad - it's fairly new challenge site with awesome sponsors, so there is a really good chance of snagging a terrific prize! The prize for this challenge is luster paper from the Paper Temptress, which is my very favorite paper of all time! In fact, I used it for the background - it is laser silver lustre paper, but I burnished it with mustard, marmalade, and mahogany inks, then used those same colors to stamp the leaves - it fairly glows IRL, I wish the scan picked it up!
The inchie is a little watercolor landscape by Debbie House - I have several of that set of watercolors, and it was hard to pick just one for the card! I don't know if I will be able to part with it. I may have to replace it with one of the animal inchies I've been making before I mail it away to anyone.

Love your sketch- great background and the inchie is great- I am trying to imagine the card with an animal inchie......love the sentiment too.
I think that is neat using another's inchie I really love your leaves. Are they just stamped? They look embossed or distressed. Also thanks for spreading the word about my challenges. Don't forget to join the "Giving Thanks" challenge too.
nice card Juliet . you could use one of your tree inchies :) or a pumpkin one would look good too :)
