Wednesday our humidity moved out and that sweet cool air from Canada came through, it feels heavenly! And with just that little switch I began to think of Fall and all it brings. Cooler temps, rustic golds, back to school and pie....okay my bookmarks have nothing to do with pie. But I love baking in the Fall! ;)
These will be entered into a few Challenges; Mod Squad, The Wing's The Thing, hosted by my Online BFF Judy Woodland, check out her blog! Stamp TV, Get Out The Tissue, hosted by another dear and talented friend Joyce Erb, check out her blog as well. And for the Challenge at Simon Says Wednesday Sparkle & Shine.
I used Gina K Designs stamp sets, Autumn Beauty, Fabulous Frame and Harvest Of Wishes. I stamped the sunflower image directly to a large piece of tissue paper many times. Cutting the large panel into two 2" x 6" pieces, which I then glued down to pieces of chipboard measuring the same. Punched a hole in the top of each, adding eyelets and Baker's Twine. I then stamped the sunflower two more times and fussy cut them out. Colored with Copic Markers. Stamped my 'winged thing' to the top and colored that image as well, then I added a good dousing of Stickles for my sparkle and shine. Added the perfect Fall sentiment and a lone flourish.
I really love how the tissue paper holds a stamped image and the texture it adds, especially if you leave some of the bubbles and crinkles. FUN technique!
Thanks so much for stopping by.....hope the weather is good to you!
Enjoy~~
