I love Autumn! It’s my favourite time of the year; the colours, the chill in the air, Nature just seems its very most beautiful in the Fall.

So I was uber excited when I saw this week’s release, it is a veritable blessing of Autmnal joy!!

For my first project I coloured the beautiful leaf image using Copic markers for the yellow/green leaves and Spenctrum Noir Sparkly ones for the orange/red ones. I love working with these colours!! I added some Wink of Stella clear overlay onto the green/yellow leaves to balance out the sparkle.

I printed out the Autumn Blessings sentiment and added gorgeous gold foiling onto it using my laminator, then cut the strip with diagonal ends.

I used a cover panel die from Altenew to create a tone on tone background and added both my image & sentiment using foam pads.

For my second card, I enlarged this sentiment to cover an a2 panel and cut it, with a stitched border, using my Cameo 4. I added more Gold foil to this sentiment too, using my laminator.

Then I blended some Altenew Dye inks up, from the bottom of the panel, allowing thi blend to fade out naturally into my sentiment. I added a very light amount of ink onto each of the other sides of my panel.

I popped this up onto foam tape onto a card base made with Buff cardstock from Papermill Direct.
