Eldon the Caterpillar meets 4 Challenges


I've not been entering so many challenges lately, just don't seem to find the time, so I was quite pleased to be able to make a card to match 4 challenges, plus after not liking my previous card, I wanted to make another card straight away (a bit like getting back in the saddle after falling off a horse - so to speak!). Anyway, enough waffle, this card is for:

TMITA - Use Eldon the Caterpillar digi-image plus use ribbon to make a bow
Carol's Sketch Fun - the sketch
Little Paper Shop - use Autumn colours - Rose Red; Pumpkin Pie & Summer Sun
Stamp With Fun - use Autumn colours

I've used Stampin' Up! throughout (except for the image) & paper-pieced Eldon's body to match with the papers.

Recipe:

Image - digi-stamp from TMITA
Sentiment - Circle of Friendship
Stampin Write Markers - Pumpkin Pie; Rose Red; Summer Sun
DSPs - Summer Picnic
Cardstock - Summer Sun; Rose Red; Pumpkin Pie
Ribbon - Fairytales
Other - ProMarkers - green & grey

It's been an absolutely gorgeous day today, so much so I had trouble taking this picture as it was so bright and I either got overexposed or shadows, so the piccie's actually a bit darker than the colours are in real life.
