This week's challenge at 613 Avenue Create is Anything Goes with the fun option of showing the Sights, Sounds and Tastes of Autumn. Our sponsors are Melonheadz Illustrations and Meljen's Designs. I used Meljen's Cinnamon Harvest Mug. My mug has mulled wine - such a yummy drink. Of course, I love spiced apple cider, too :) We're already seeing the leaves falling from the trees here in Georgia so Autumn is definitely on my mind.
I colored the image with a combination of Sharpies and Copics. I added some leaves from a Fiskars border punch. I used a decorative corner punch and lightly chalked the background. I covered the image with clear Wink of Stella. Glitter glue adds sparkle to the swirls of steam. The sentiment is Close to My Heart.
I'm entering these challenges: Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes; My Time to Craft #256 - Food & Drink; and The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers # 15- K is for Kraft.
What a great image! I'm thinking hot apple cider! Love the sparkle you added with the WOS and glitter glue! Thanks for joining us at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers for the kraft challenge!

Love this card Sheila, what beautiful coloring you did with your mug and leaves. Your mulled spiced wine looks pretty good. lol I love spiced apple cider on a nice fall evening. We've been seeing leaves fall from our trees too, but I think some of it is from being dry and other is because of the very cool nights we've been having. But fall is right around the corner! I love fall, just don't like what comes next!! lol Hopefully you guys won't seeing any snow this winter. Hugs, Brenda
