H2H Challenges: Lots of Layers

Has the weather gotten cold where you are?  It was 33 degrees Friday night at the end of our football game, and 27 Saturday morning!  YUCK!  I am NOT ready for these frigid temperatures!  Heart 2 Heart Challenges is challenging us to end October with lots of layers.  That's right, pile it on!  We want to see your creations with lots and lots of layers (at least 5- but you could pile on more).
My card uses the October stamp of the month, Scandinavian Wishes, and the Frosted paper pack with Cranberry accents, using one of the card patterns from the Make It From Your Heart, Vol. 2 how-to guide.  The ladies at my card class yesterday got to choose which Cricut die cut they wanted to use to personalize their card.  They could also choose to accent the Frosted paper pack with either Blush or Cranberry.

To add some panache to my stamped image, I first stamped it in Cashmere.  Then I colored select areas to highlight them: the deer with Desert Sand and the heart with Cranberry.  Doesn't the red glitter glitz add something special?  

Here's the house image stamped in Cashmere and colored with Desert Sand, Blush, Cranberry, Crystal Blue, Olive, and New England Ivy.  Don't you love how the marker pops?  Try coloring your stamped images sometime!  You can even try this technique with colored pencils.

Now go check out what the H2H DT has in store for you as they pile on the layers.  You have until Saturday to play along with any of the October challenges.  I hope to see you there!
