Fall here in the Laurentians are so colourful. I went out for a walk and captured this image on my way:
Inspired by the Color Throwdown
Challenge #514, I made gelli prints in orange, brown, rust and yellow. Using the the Fall Foliage from Sizzix I cut, dry and heat embossed a wide variety of leaves. Then using Karren‘s Freshly Made Sketch #358 I die two circles, one in vellum (painted yellow and orange), one in white card stock. Both were stamped and white heat embossed. The leaves were pasted at the bottom along with some rafia. The Penny Black word die “thanks” was also cut in the prints.
Thanks for stopping by, HUGz, Joanna
Thank you Jen, from Freshly Made Sketches for choosing my card as an honourable mention.
Another big thanks to the Color Throwdown Down Challenge for the recognition 😀 !
Fantastic fall card Jo! It looks just as beautiful as the photo of leaves you took. Great inspiration for making your card. Love the design with the layers of circles and mixed media design. So much texture and dimension. The rafia is just perfect! xx
