Autumn Greetings

Hello, friends!  It may be over 90 degrees outside, but it looks like fall on my card (I just wish it FELT like fall, but we can dream, right?).

I know I say it every time, but aren’t those critters so cute?!  They’re from the new Season of Change set, and I just love them so much!  I stamped them with Versafine Onyx Black ink onto Bristol Smooth paper and watercolored with my Zigs.  Once they were dry, I cut them out with the coordinating dies.

Onto another piece of Bristol paper, I ink-blended Peeled Paint and Tumbled Glass distress inks.  I trimmed down the panel and adhered it to kraft cardbase.  I arranged three small stamps from Fall Friends onto an acrylic block and repeatedly stamped them onto an A2-sized piece of kraft cardstock.  With the Stitched Circle Die Set, I cut out an opening and attached the frame to my card with foam tape.

I adhered my colored images onto my card and used a black glaze pen on the bear’s eyes and nose.  I white heat-embossed a sentiment from Fall Friends onto a strip of black cardstock and popped it up with foam tape (The section overlapping my ink-blending got two layers of foam tape to compensate for the dimension of the frame).  For some sparkle (You’ve probably figured out by now how much I like my bling, right?), I added some clear sequins.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,

Andrea
