Our challenge at Daring Cardmakers this week is being set by Dawn and she’d like to see something influenced by the changing seasons.
On my daily walk up the lane I pass lots of interesting dry stone walling, some of it a little tumbledown, some of it mossy or supporting brambles as well as keeping the cows and sheep where they should be! I haven’t used this folder for ages and I thought it would be nicely rustic with the autumn leaves. I added a bit of ink to the folder before embossing to accentuate the lines.
Unusually for me, there’s no stamping (other than the sentiment).
Stamps:
Sentiment from Big Day Today (Waltzingmouse Stamps, no longer with us)
Paper:
Bristol board
Kraft
Ink:
Versafine by Tsukineko (Vintage Sepia)
Tim Holtz Distress ink by Ranger (Vintage Photo)
Other:
Dry stone wall embossing folder (Crafter’s Companion)
Pan pastels
Leaves dies (Impression Obsession)
