Hey Lovelies...
Well Autumn/Fall is in the air... so I thought I'd do a couple of cards which celebrate the beauty of the season. I look at the trees and there are such wonderful colours and shades, that it's really difficult to capture... but I've done my best.
I've used the Small Stitched Foliage dies from Pretty Pink Posh... and an Autumn word die from Stamping Bella that's now retired, but still remains a favourite in my stash.
For my first card, I've used some cream Bazzill linen card for my background.. and some kraft for the base. I used Distress Oxides for the colouring - blending them onto cardstock before die cutting.
For the second I used dark brown card with the cream - which makes it a stronger card, so I used Distress Inks for the colours - they show up so much brighter than the oxides. I've got to admit, I can't decide which I prefer more.
Card Info:
Dies - Pretty Pink Posh Small Stitched Foliage, Stamping Bella Autumn
Distress Oxides - Scattered Straw, Carved Pumpkin, Brushed Corduroy,
Abandoned Coral, Crushed Olive, Peeled Paint
Distress Inks - Same as above
Hope you like my Fall makes... I do love the beautiful colours of nature on dry crisp Autumn days.
Happy Crafting...
