Hello Dear Friends!
I was originally inspired by the yellow/green leaves in the upper right corner so that's where my project began as I used a (new to me) stencil from ciaobellapaper.com called Ramage.
Using TH oxide inks and large sponge daubers. I was very happy with that but then I thought I'd 'double down' and use a second die over top this first layer. So I grabbed my Tim Holtz Autumn Layering Stencil and used more orange, red & green TH oxide inks for these fall leaves.
My sentiment is a very old wooden block stamp by stampingsensations.com. (no longer in business). To tie in with the sentiment, I add a few tiny little 'diamonds' for embellishment.
The prize that you'll be playing for this time around is:
Impression Obsession - Dies - Small Leaf Set
Remember, it's a random draw for the winner so it could be YOU!!
