Bits and Pieces of Olive and Oak

Happy Friday!!  I have a lot to share with you today because Power Poppy is hopping this month.  First of all, since it's the first Friday of the month, we're starting a new Power and Spark Challenge.  This month we're required to "use bits and pieces" of a stamp image.  How fun is that!!  Marcy often makes beautiful collages of images and breaking them up can really make some areas of the image "pop".  

I chose to use Mojo Monday sketch 281 along with Power Poppy's Olive and Oak digital image.  I also used a sentiment from the Power Poppy Clear set called Dynamic Duos: Peonies and Tulips.  It's my son and his wife's first anniversary in a couple of days, and I thought this Fall image fit perfectly.

The image was printed onto X-Press It cardstock and was colored with copics.

The rest is pretty straight forward, so that sums it up for my project today.  Be sure and check out what the following Bloom Brigaders have to share today though.  These gals don't mess around, let me tell you.  They always pull out all the stops with their coloring and designs.
