Fallen leaves

Good afternoon everyone, And welcome to my blog today, I have another card to share with you from Tonic Studios Autumn Wishes Die collection ,hope you managed to catch some shows over the weekend with our jo & Dawny.

Dies used :-

Autumn Wishes - Fallen Leaves

Square layering die set

 Idyllic Garland fancy-Friends Forever die

Tonic Simplicity bunch- Gothic Border

The card is 8"x8" easel card with Matt and layering the background I used a selection of Tim Holtz distressed inks Spiced Marmalade- Dried Marigold-Festive Berries, just randomly  rubbed into  the card stock blending the colours together and then spritzing the card stock lightly with water and dabbing off the excess with kitchen towel.

The leaves were cut out of 4 squares using the square layering die sets and then keeping the negative from the die cut to create a little more interest to the card the leaves I cut out of kraft card and spritzed the card stock with a little water to soften the card so I could scrunch it up to give it more of a natural leaf shape  and then  inked with Tim Holtz tea dye and some Dried Marigold and rubbed the edge of the leaves with nuvo copper mousse.

The Forever Friends  die i cut a piece of the inked card and with a black fine liner  pen I filled in the debossed  letters to make it stand out then finished the card with the gothic border on foam pads to form the stopper for the card to stand up and added nuvo drops for the final decoration.

Thank you for visiting today

See you all soon
