My card was made with Hero Arts Bare Branched Tree, Irregular Checkerboard Background stencil & Messages with Flourish. The Distress Inks are candied apple, abandoned coral & carved pumpkin.
The panel was spritzed with copper shimmer mist & I finished off with black sequins. I've had the tree stamp quite awhile, so glad to finally use it for a card.
Freshly Made Sketches is celebrating it's 500th challenge with a sketch I really like. There are also a lot of great prizes. I'm definitely in the mood for Fall, so I pulled out my old PTI Take 3: Fall.
I used my MISTI so I could ink the stamps with 3 colors (Canyon Clay, Summer Sunrise, Harvest Gold) over & over until I was happy. The Canyon Clay frame is made with the matching die. I stamped the image from Autumn Adornments in Summer Sunrise on a Summer Sunrise panel. I added a couple cardstock layers to the pumpkin strip for dimension. The sentiment from Bold Borders: Foliage was die cut multiple times, stacked & covered with Nuvo Glaze. Finished off with a variety of sequins. I'm also entering SSS Wednesday.
Here's my card for the PTI challenge to add color to Rainstones with Copic Markers. Still having fun with Into the Blooms II die set. Found this color combo in the sheets I printed when PTI gave them to us every month.
The cardstock is Enchanted Evening, Autumn Rose & Sweet Blush with vellum for the leaves & a Soft Stone card. I blended Scarlet Jewel on the big blooms & Autumn Rose on the small ones. Hard to see, but I also used Dark Indigo on the Shape Shifters Circle 3 die cut. Ink was splattered on all the die cuts, but it came out pretty light. I used the old Linen Impression Plate on the card front. Copic RV34 was used to color the Rainstones. I black embossed the sentiment from Mat Stack 3 Collection--a real oldy! Thanks to a friend, I have Autumn Rose printed paper--just what this card needed. I made this for one of my college roommates who is recovering from back surgery. I'm also entering SSS Monday, SSS Wednesday & TTTC using middle horizontal row: Any color ink, free, any shape die cut.
