This color combination would make gorgeous Fall projects, but don't limit yourself. How about using these colors for a Halloween-themed card or a masculine birthday card? So many possibilities! Let's see what our IPC DT came up with:

On her spooky distressed background, she adds a gray haunted house using the Haunted House die, and she adds a moon and a splattering of clouds using the Spooky Sky Die set. Her little "Eeek!" sentiment is from the Spiderweb Oval stamp set. A spook-taculalr way to use the challenge colors!
