Fall Foliage

While I'm not quite ready yet for summer to end and fall to begin, one thing I always look forward to in the fall is the beautiful fall colors. The trees are always so inspiring in my crafting and I am always ready to use fall colors in my work. Today's sketch challenge came easily for me today. I took one look at the sketch and knew what I wanted to do.

I love how this turned out! I haven't used the thumping technique on a card in a while and it just seemed natural to pull out my markers and start thumping away on the autumn leaves for this card.

RECIPE:
Stamps: Season of Friendship, Canvas, Everyday Flexible Phrases (all SU)
Ink: Chocolate chip, More Mustard, Really Rust
Paper: More Mustard, Really Rust, Chocolate Chip, White, Autumn Vine Designer Paper
Accessories: Brads, Circle punches (3/4 inch, 1 inch, 1 1/4 inch, & 1 3/8 inch), dimentionals
Techniques: thumping
