Sweet Friend

We have a warm and somewhat cozy mood board for you at
Colorful Options this month, lots of inspiration to be found! 

Option 1 — Rusty Brown

Create a project featuring rusty brown as the primary color.

Think warm rust, copper, and cinnamon. Rich, cozy, weathered, or natural—any interpretation within this warm spectrum is welcome.

Option 2 — Warm Earth Tones

Prefer a variation? Work within a palette of warm earth tones: brown,khaki, coffee, caramel, amber, chestnut, or terracota. Blend tones, go monochromatic, or layer shades for depth—soft and subtle or bold and textured.

For my warm browns card I did a card I saw several months back, 
maybe even last fall where they used the Spellbinders Sunflower Serenade
to cover a card base with the layered flowers then trimming along the edge
to make an A2 card.  I die cut 24 flowers which were then layered with a
pop up in-between.  I used all scraps from my 'brown' bag of scraps.  
I did learn a few things after I finished my card.  One was to use a card base
similar to the colors of your flowers as my white card base does show through
here and there, a brown base would of been the better choice!

It looked like a lot of work to me but was actually quite quick and easy.
So easy, I might make a few more in other colors.
My camera makes it look a bit uneven on the sides, but it is not,
it is trimmed even as it should be.
The sentiment is a Spellbinders Betterpress.

Here are a few of the scraps (snippets) I used:

I'd love to hear what you think and have to admit it
was a bit intimidating cutting those flower petals
along the edge!!

If you are feeling 'cozy' then come on over to
