Today's TLC: Stray Embossing Powder
Anyone who has known me for awhile, knows that I'm not into messiness. Well, here goes....After applying the dots in vm and embossing, I sponged in 3 shades of blue then added lightly the French script in black. Next, I sponged 3 colors onto cs, stamped the veins and die-cut. Added the sentiment, sponged the edges in tangerine.
Then it was time for the photo.....went outside where it was raining, didn't realize the tabletop was wet. Wind blew the card on it's front and the leaves got wet. Mottled somewhat and I was blowing the water around the leaves and dabbing a bit with napkin. In the end, I rather like what happened! A win for me! Thanks for stopping by today! ~Roberta

LOL, yes, I don't associate you with distressed look techniques, but I think your background is lovely and the accidental water damage to the leaves looks great. I like the feel of autumn leaves and a bright blue sky - we had that today in between showers.

Sorry for your trouble but it turned in a huge plus - I love the look you were left with. The leaves are gorgeous against the pretty background. Hate to say, but we have beautiful sunshine, a gentle breeze, blue skies and 73 out! It's a beautiful fall day ... just like your card GF.

What a happy accident with the wind and rain .... natural distressing via the elements!! How beautiful your leaves look against the blue sky!
