Good morning! We've been enjoying some nice Autumn weather with crisp, cool nights - perfect for sleeping with the windows open! I absolutely love Fall. I would have to say that Fall/Autumn/Halloween cards are also my favorite craft to make! Today I have a card to share showcasing one of the stencils from the new release at:
This one is called Fall Foliage:
I have so many inks, sprays, powders, etc., it's actually ridiculous - but I find myself going for my Distress Oxide Ink pads over and over again, especially when I'm making backgrounds. I just love the way water reacts with them, I love the way you can emboss it, I love the way you can layer and blend it to look lighter or darker...anyway, that's what I used here. I blended heavily through the stencil and embossed that with a clear sparkly embossing powder, then I ran the ink pad around the edges and spritzed water lightly, letting it run a bit to get a watercolor effect. I printed out my digi stamp from Krista Smith and colored with Copics, then cut her out and sponged the edges with brown ink. I added the die cut "hugs" to this panel, then I die cut the panel behind her with a stitched edge square nesting die and added some rhinestone stickers to it.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
Tic Tac Toe #300 (I used ink blending, free, and leaves)
