Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
It's time for another challenge from Color Hues.
This month our talented Tracey picked our colors. She chose....
Aren't these perfect colors for October?
Originally I was going to do something with pumpkins but when I opened a
surprise package from Michele, I knew I needed to go in another direction.
Recently Michele posted this card when she was our Guest Designer and I loved
that little bird and that she used vellum for the background. So I CASEd
her card using the new Color Hues colors.
I had some trouble figuring out how to put all those die cut pieces together!
So I got out some Press & Seal and put everything back together on the die.
After that it was smooth sailing and I LOVE the results!
Now let's go and see what my talented friends and our
fantastic Guest Designer Annette have done to inspire you.
Your card and or project can use ANY HUE of the TWO Colors selected for you,
and of course, neutrals are welcome.
Our Neutrals are: white, black, grey, kraft, brown, cream, and metallics.
Remember that green is not a neutral.
I hope you'll create a card using Orange & Black and add it to the gallery at
Challenge ends at 9:00 AM on October 29.
The winners will be posted an hour before our next challenge and the overall
winner will have the opportunity to be a future Guest Designer.
Most importantly, just have fun!

OMG what a cool card and Yes! LOVE the bird!!!
He's the cutest EVER, Bonnie!! LOve this in the black and how perfect the orange is for those sweet little leaves! Fabulous embossing, too!

Your red winged blackbird is adorable, Bonnie. Your card is like looking through a window at all of Autumn's colorful nature.
Gorgeous. x
A fantastic autumn card! This color palette is a perfect match for this die. Both the colors and the background embossing capture the autumn mood beautifully.

Love the way you used orange and black for a non-Halloween card! Love that little bird. And what a great layout!
I'm in love with that bird all over again! And Press n Seal for the win--isn't that a must have for your kitchen and craft room?
Oooh, I love that sweet little bird in orange and black with all the autumn leaves around. How perfect and pretty this is for our window challenge at Double D. Thanks for playing with us, Bonnie!
Love your cute bird in orange & black, along with the orange leaves and embossed background. Love how you have him framed.
You made great use of that package from sweet Michele! This is a charming fall card, Bonnie!
LOVE it! Best use of those colors, Bonnie. They are perfect for your scene!
Like everyone else I am amazed at your bird. I especially like your bold colors on the white background. This makes for a lovely fall card. I am so glad you enjoyed us at Double D challenge.
This card really stood out to me in our lineup, Bonnie. I love that bird and your creative layout. Exceptional job showing how versatile these colors are.
You found the perfect embossing folder to go with those gorgeous leaves and cute little bird. Doesn't he look great in orange and black? xx
Beautiful fall colours and your little bird is so sweet xx
It's a fabulous CASE of Michele's card and such a creative take on the Black and Orange challenge! Thank goodness for Press & Seal--it's saved more than one card for me.
What a standout card Bonnie and I'm loving all the little orange and black details! The birdie is fabulous in the orange and black, and your ink blended leaves are so pretty! Love, LOVE your background too! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! Hugs. :0)

This is such a pretty card Bonnie! Love how you scattered the leaves around the window and created that bird to resemble the Towhees that are one of my favorite birds. Beautifully done!
Bonnie what a perfect scene you created! I love the embossed background, the way you have the crow sitting on the branches in the window and your fabulously coloured leaves. So lovely my friend!
Your bird and leaves are ever so eye-catching, especially against that lovely embossed background. Beautiful inspiration for our challenge; beautiful card to share with someone special.

Very tweet! Wonderful inspiration with the colour duo.
You know, I saw and lived Michele’s card but it didn’t occur to me that this was a CASE. These colors really gives this bird a whole new feel. Really love this Bonnie!
