We’ve fallen in love. The judges, that is — fallen in love with your Fall Color Challenge creations. Truly inspiring!! See for yourself — all 300 entries are HERE. It doesn’t get any better than that, wow!

As a refresher, here are the four Fall palettes we were working with:

Now it’s time for some winners…

Our Fresh Face pick this week is MegBecka, who created this simply beautiful thank you card using the earthy colors from palette #3. We love how she added the pops of color with the three blocks that are part of the stamp design.

The winner in the Digital category is AmieMajelle. Take a look at this gorgeous hybrid card she created with the Friendship Definition digital kit...

And our Scrapbooking prize goes to pandabear1981 for her page full of wonderful colors and patterns. Love the gold ink and those circles along the bottom!

Now for First Place! This home decor project by wteresa15 blew us away. She said each letter was made with ten layers of die cut chipboard glued together. Great details, and the little bird is a fun touch! Imagine making these for different seasons for your home…

In Second Place we have kiaraleestudio with a stunning butterfly thank you card. What a beautiful use of the colors from palette #2!

Next, Third Place honors go to Vera Rhuhay for her cute ghost shaker card using the colors from palette #4. So creative and fun — and just perfect for the color scheme! Check out the gems on the spiders too…

And now, here are three more impressive entries that will be getting Honorable Mention prizes.

Check out this beautiful Fall card from tomoh08! Such a great mix of colors, patterns, textures, and stamped images. My favorite touch is the realistic looking raindrops…so cool!

How utterly clever is shannavineyard’s card featuring a turkey with leaves for feathers?! The body is printed clip art, and the leaves are stamped. Cute, cute, cute!

Finally, an Honorable Mention goes to janeB74 for her delightful purple owl card! It’s full of great details…we especially love the sparkly black cape and hat.

Congratulations everyone! Please send your addresses and phone numbers (for shipping purposes) to the blog email address over in the sidebar and we’ll get your prizes ready for you!

Now let’s have a peek at what the Hostesses came up with for the challenge — owls, birds, butterflies, trees, leaves, flowers — all in gorgeous autumn colors. Wow! (Click any circle for a larger view.)

Projects by Kathy Racoosin, Tiffany Ervin, Tracey Kuzniak, Lucy Abrams, Cathy Andronicou, Sarah Moerman, Virginia Lu.

Thanks so much to all who played along with our week of Fall colors! I hope you had fun. We received some requests for more seasonal color palettes, so we’ll keep that in mind for future seasons and challenges.

Have a great day!
