Is the weekend over already? Where does the time go? Thankfully, I found some time to make this card.
I stamped the trees in Versamark and heat embossed them with white powder, and sponged over them and a Post It note sun with the Fall colours, I did the same to some leaves on a strip of white card, but also added some randomly stamped leaves. I embossed some stripes on brown card and laid this by the side of the stamped card with 3D pads on a base. Instead of ribbon, the cards were wrapped with plated raffia of the three colours for a more masculine feel, and the trees and sentiment were added also on 3D pads.
I am entering these challenges :
The Autumn colours come from Color Throwdown
and the theme of
FALL at Paper Players,
The Male Room also have a FALL theme

Buttercup is still with us, although she thinks she is a dog instead of a donkey!? She wont drink from a bucket yet so is still being bottle fed, much to my sister's annoyance as she isn't getting much sleep. I will be going to see her on Tuesday so I'll see how much she's changed over the weekend.
Until next time, thanks for dropping by
What a great fall card! I just love the embossing and sponging, so pretty.Thanks for joining us this week at The Paper Players!
ReplyDeleteI like the boldness of the colours on the leaf panel down the side, Bev; it's a nice complement to the main panel. Plaited raffia is a clever touch! Thanks for joining in the fun at Just Add Ink this week!
