Autumn Card

I love Autumn! The air cooling in the mornings and evenings, the smell of cinnamon and vanilla, the re-introduction of pumpkin-flavored EVERTYTHING make me happy. It also makes me with we had the joy of seeing the leaves on the trees change to brilliant shades of oranges and reds. Since we live in the desert and everything is either green-ish or a lovely shade of dirt, I love dreaming of the fall colors in my artwork.

This card features beautiful Autumn colors as well as showcasing some words describing this beautiful season. I used September's stamp of the month: Poster Tidings. To get the multicolored panel using just the one stamp, I stamped the image on colonial white card stock multiple times using multiple ink colors. I then cut the accent words out of the stamped images into long strips and glued them overtop of the image I had stamped in slate. The leaves and scrolls were cut using the Cricut Artbooking cartridge.
