The challenge on Daring Cardmakers this week is "Forever Autumn" so here is my take on the theme.The card was made by first brayering colour from an Adirondack Rainbow Pad (Woodlands) onto some cardstock, then stamping the leaf image randomly using various autumnal colours of Twinkling H2Os painted directly onto the stamp. This was matted onto some dark green cardstock. Another matting layer was made by spritzing Glimmer Mists onto some orange card stock and that was also layerd onto more of the dark green card. I chose some russet coloured card stock for the main card and used an Elusive Imgages text stamp to stamp and emboss the Just a Note greeting onto it. The stamp is from the Delightful Damask themeplate
Oh wow Phree, your card is just stunning.
ReplyDeleteYour brayered background looks wonderful and I love the effect of stamping the leaves with H2O’s. The colours are perfect.

ReplyDeleteAnother wonderful card, love the colours!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment on my blog.
Once again, this card is wonderful Phree. Adore the colours. I've not tried stamping with H2os yet but as usual, you've made a lovely job of it. I love that Woodland inkpad. Did you know they are discontinued? I managed to get mine from the Harrogate show last month, along with 5 other colour selections once I found out they were to be no more.

This is a stunning card Phree and so twinkley. Pascale :)
ReplyDeletePhree, what a lovely tribute to autumn. Thanks for sharing not only the picture of the card but all the technique and supplies you used to get there.....very nice!
ReplyDeleteHi deby, the themeplate that the text stamp came from is the "Delightful Damask" plate - I am not 100% sure without going to look, but recently I think Graphicus had a special offer price on that one - the link for the item in the Graphicus shop is in my original post.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely, reminds me of a beautiful woven fabric, somehow
ReplyDeleteHow very creative and definitely gorgeous! I love how you did the main image area, mounted and then the area behind that too! Wonderful warm Fall colors, Phree!
ReplyDeletePhree this is such a beautiful card and I agree with Kathy, when I saw your card I thought it looked like tapestry.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful ..... love it such apt colours!

I thought I'd left a comment on this beautiful card but it looks like I pressed the wrong button somewhere. I love these Autumnal colours and anything with leaves on so it's ringing all the right bells for me.
