Check out the challenge blog HERE.
And below is my entry for their current challenge & it fits the Simon Says Stamp Challenge for anything goes!
Here is my card. I was able to use distress inks to make my background. I masked off the ground from the sunset so I would not mix the green and orange colors. I also masked off the border of the stitched edge which provides an instant mat. This technique I copied from Nichol M.
To color my bunnies, I used colored pencils and gamsol to get the watercolored soft look. I selectively inked the sentiment since it was too long to fit on the tag.
The stitched tag and rectangle are from Simon Says Stamp - called Bundle of Stitched Shapes.
I did a search on Google to see sunset colors to give me an idea of how to make my background. I used: Scattered Straw, Spiced Marmalade, Spun Sugar Distress Inks, and Baja Breeze from Stampin' Up, to make the sky.
For the grass I used Wild Wasabi ink from Stampin' Up.
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you like this card featuring Avery Elle's stamp set More Stories.

This is such a lovely card and yes- Avery Elle products are definitely easy to get addicted to! You've used the images so beautifully. I love the soft background you created and how it blends for the sky, but is more defined for the grass. Clever, clever! And those bunnies stand out so well. I like how you've positioned them as though they are thoughtful little bunnies looking off into the distance and thinking deep thoughts. Great stitched elements, too. I loved seeing this card and am so glad you shared your skills with us here at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog!
