As the summer winds down, I have been getting in the Fall/Halloween mood! Just love all the great colors associated with that time of year. So...I created my first fall card this year with the Tim Holtz Blueprint Oak stamp- using the Sizzix Framelits kit to cut out different pieces of the leaf and layer for dimension and color! Just love these sets, although I will admit that "fussy" cutting is relaxing to me! I used Distress Ink with a watercolor brush to get just the right mix of colors
After finishing the main frame of the card I decided to mount it on a square piece of corrugated folded card and tucked some altered tattered leaves under for additional efffect. I just love how this card came together and the all the colors.
I am busy in the studio creating and making a ton of cards for an upcoming fair where for the first time I will be selling my work and ALL the proceeds will be going to a local dachshund rescue! More info to come on the time Cannot wait to see how it goes! I am a little nervous !
Hi Pam, here I am again ;-), youre creations are so beautiful, I love them. I also ordered the leave, can't wait to work with it.
