My fellow DT member from TIO, AJ, is also on the DT for the brand new Pan Pastel UK Challenge Blog - and because I got some yesterday I thought it only polite to make something for them to join in.
This week, the theme is "anything goes" and as I have limited colours - 3 greens and an orange - autumn came to mind. I used my new Tim H die bought yesterday - Autumn Gatherings - boy those leaves are tiny.... and some tattered leaves from my scraps pile (yippee!)
The circle chip is also something I'd started to use for a different challenge a while ago and rejected - it was the right colour (distress stains) so I recycled that too! Added the Tim sentiment and sprayed some Perfect Copper for some sparkle.
I cut the tiny leaves from some of the Kraft stack by Tim (more scraps!) and coloured them with my pan pastels.
Stuck all the leaves with a prit-stick glue.
I may not be able to join in many of these challenges, till I get some more colours, but we'll see!!

Hi Helen. Thanks for leaving me a comment about Ally Pally and buying things.
It's really spooky to come over and see you bought the pan pastels yesterday and although I didn't know I wanted them, I got some too and have been 'playing' with them. I love the colours.
How is Sutton these days? I haven't been back for ages!!!
Have a good week.
