Fall is in the Air!

Adding some Fall cards to my stash.

This is a sketch from Stamp Nation.

 

PTI paper, Phrase Play # 5 die cut "thankful",

MFT Fall Foliage, Lawn Fawn "So Thankful"

 

I have been wanting to do a layout inspired by Maile Belles and at the same time, do the layered stamping.  I used the MFT Fall Foliage again and inked up each leaf with two different colors.  I love how it gives depth and richness to the images.

 

Thanks for taking a look!

 



The New Challenge

Lesley, over at Always Playing with Paper  put up a new sketch on her blog and asked us to join in the fun...this is the sketch:
There are a number of ways to interpret this sketch...like fellow blogger Lin (and my BFF), I saw Julie Ebersole videos with this technique so I thought I would give a try also.

I used a sentiment from PTI Stylish Sentiments:  Christmas and white embossed it onto the paper,

then I used some distress inks to swipe across the page, you can check out Julies blog to watch the video.  I added some shimmer stars and mounted it on a raspberry fizz card base.

 

Thanks, Lesley, I will look for more of your fun sketches, and I will remember this one too!

 

Have a great Sunday!

Heart Hugs,

Colleen
