Let's Get Sketchy Fall Blog Hop

Welcome to the very first Let’s Get Sketchy blog hop!! We at LGS are so very excited about our first blog hop!  If you have arrived here from Lanette's blog, welcome to your 8th stop on the hop!! If you have stumbled across the hop by chance and want to play along then you can head over to Stephanie's Blog to start at the beginning and to start collecting your Fall challenge words. You'll find these challenge words bolded on each DT member’s page so that they are easy for you to find!
 Blog Hop Challenge-Fall into Fall
Fall is such a beautiful time of the year, its when the leaves start changing colors and everything around us is beautiful.  It is also the season of Thanksgiving, which reminds us to take a moment to reflect on all the things we are most thankful for.
So in celebration of the fall we are hosting a Fall Color Combo challenge.  You are to use the colors below and create ANY project related to the Fall.  It can be a layout, card, mixed media project or altered item.  The sky is the limit!  Once your project is completed, please return to LGS and upload your project using Mr. Linky.
Please use the color combo below:
You MUST use all of the colors in the picture (light blue, autumn red, yellow, brown, green)
Here is my project using this great color combo:
My card features the great stamp set "Harvest Happiness" which coordinates perfectly with the leaves cut from the CTMH Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge.   My sentiment is from the retired "Thank You" stamp set.  I used desert sand and colonial white cardstock and the ink colours are twilight, honey, ruby, and olive.  I finished off the fall/natural feel with a hemp bow.  
The winner of the hop colour challenge will be randomly selected and will win the beautiful Prima collection below. 
(Embellishments may vary)
Also as you hop along the way you will find clue words on each of the Design Team member’s blogs.  Once you have gathered all the words in order they will form a quote related to Fall. Tell us that quote by emailing us at letsgetsketchy@gmail.com for an extra rak of scrap goodies!
Your word for this stop on the hop is "NO".
Here are the rules for playing and winning: 1. You MUST be a follower of each LGS team members blogs and leave a comment on each blog and; 2. You MUST also be a follower of the LGS blog.
Please make sure you visit the entire team today as some members are hosting additional blog challenges during the hop and offering their own extra goodies for you so the more you play the more chances you win!
All blog hop entries are due by midnight, November 15, 2012.   
AS A BONUS -- I will be making a random draw of all the comments received here on my blog post to win this great stamp set:
Now hop on over to Alison's blog to see what she has in store for you! 
Here is our complete hop lineup of the participating blogs in case you get lost along the way:
