Finally got my card done for the Sept. Lil Inker Meet Up Challenge. I began by making a smooshed watercolor paper panel with Distress Inks fired brick, dried marigold, spiced marmalade & scattered straw. Then I swiped on some Tarnished Brass Distress Stain & die cut 3 leaves from Lil Inker Modern Mehndi. The matching stamp was inked in Memento Olive Grove--a color I seldom if ever use, but it was perfect for this card. Lil Inker Stitched Rectangles dies were cut from kraft cardstock to make the frame & ended up using the inside piece as well for a little different design. The sentiment from Modern Mehndi was stamped with the same green ink & finished off with 3 little pearls. Smooshing has become one of my favorite techniques, so I'm also entering the SSS Monday challenge. Since I used several die cuts, I'll enter at SSS Wednesday & the Fall colors let me enter SSS Work It Wednesday. Thank you so much for the votes of confidence you left on my last post--they truly made my day.
I'm loving the autumn feel of this card, Greta! Beautiful water coloring and the addition of Tarnished Brass distress stain really makes them shine! Love how they are cascading down the card, too...Stunning work!
