Color Throwdown #105

Okay, so it took me a little longer to get a post up then I anticipated. The trip out of town really threw my muse for a loop and it has been hard to get back in the groove.

Here is this week's Color Throwdown


The colors this week really reminded me of Autumn so I decided to make a card for a dear friend of mine who loves Autumn colors and leaves. 

I made a "For You" piece to put on the card too but now I can't decide which I like better. Feel free to share your thoughts on the matter.

Nope, I wasn't dead just ........

out of town and sorry to say I missed all the great challenges last week and some of them this week. We had a family emergency with my husband's grandmother (she is doing well now) and had to travel to NY for a few days. Now that things are settled I hope to be back in the groove soon.

I do want to share with you my good news and shamelessly ask for your vote at the same time. Perhaps you remember I while back I posted my entry for the ArtChix Art Flag Swap? Here are the photos again to refresh your memory.

Well, the amazing Helga has chosen a set of 3 of my flags as one of her top ten favorite sets!!! Awesome...right? Okay, here comes the shameless part.......go to the ArtChix Blog and vote for Artist #3, that's me. Of course, there are other amazing and talented artists featured and I will understand if you have to vote for someone else (sob, sob) but it doesn't hurt to ask.

I hope to be posting some new pieces later tonight.
