I used this handmade paper from Paper Mojo because it makes me think of colorful swirling fall leaves blowing from the trees and kicking up around me as I go for a walk in the brisk breeze. These are the colors I love working with. I'm not so much a pastel person. I would have liked to use a larger sentiment on this, but I wanted to use my new MISTI so this is what I ended up with. I really have to get more of the MISTI friendly sentiments. Or learn how to convert my wood mounted stamps. I find I am also being pulled more and more toward the silhouette type stamps. I guess I love the extreme contrast. I really love working with my new toy. I feel so spoiled.....and SO overwhelmed because I have so many wood mounted stamps that I also really love and will have to re-vamp to use with this God's Gift to Stampers.
Have an Exciting weekend and thanks for taking a peek.

Miss Ellen you find the best ever paper and always use them so beautifully. You are going to love your MISTI, especially as you can just keep stamping until you get a good coverage on handmade papers and patterned dp. Thank you for all your wonderful comments my friend. You make my heart smile. Xx

You sure have an eye for wonderful papers, Ellen, and then you use them perfectly. The flourishes and sentiment look fantastick. This really reminds me of swirling fall leaves.
