My submission for todays challenge to use leaves on our cards.
I pulled out Stampin Up's retired Fantastic Foilage set.
I used the Misting with Markers technique. I coloured my stamp with my Dusty Durango marker and misted it before stamping with my mini mister. I like how it gives a bleeding effect on the watercolour paper.
I used some really old DSP I had from Hot Of The Press...it is in the Travel themed pack.
I added some polka dotted ribbon in my corduroy button.
The Hello sentiment is from Clear Dollar Stamps.
Although this is a Autumn card......it feels like winter today in Southern Ontario.....I actually wore my mittens delivering mail today...YUK! Last week I was still in shorts.....go figure.
