Mary is our hostess this week and she has chosen: Tangelo Twist, Cajun Craze, Hello Honey, Old Olive, Real Red (to use at least 3) and for dessert: a fall scene. I used used old olive and brushos which happily mimicked the chosen colors!
This time I created a bg by sprinkling brushos on a separate piece of cs, spritzed with water and let dry – I actually added more brushos in a couple places to get the look I wanted and tipped cs back and forth. After this was dry I stamped the tree outlines, spritzed with shimmer spritz and fussy cut (because I simply could NOT find my dies, which of course mysteriously showed up later)! Die cut the sentiment and then the frame from blueprints 29, matted with an old olive panel, and assembled.

This is a fantastic design, Maura! Such a wonderful layout and I love the gradient colors on those bold leaves. Finished off perfectly with the white die cut word.
