I am sharing my midway design team inspiration for our
October Challenge at Stamping Sensations.
Sorry for the poor photo but I have had pretty dark weather this weekl.
I decided to have a go at the Spotlight Technique when I saw my lovely friend Chrissy's card.
Photo is not great as I had to take it indoors because of our awful weather!
I used another new stamp set (I know I spoilt myself) called
Healing Hugs.
I stamped the leaves in memento ink, off stamping to get a grey shade.
I then cut a circle out of this just to the left.
I coloured the circle leaves using terracotta tile, old olive and so saffron inks
and wink of stella. The circle was placed back into place but raised on dimensionals.
I finished with a sentiment on a matching stamped background and
a bow made with copper thread.
The base card is made from Terracotta Tile card stock.
Be sure and pop over to Stamping Sensations where the theme is
Leaves/Trees/Autumn.
