Hi all!
Pi back again with, probably, my last card with fall colours. In a few days it'll be December and will be all about Christmas:)
Pixie Tilda is really from the Christmas collection, but she is just to adorable not to play with. i copiced her in fall colours and voila!
This card was so much fun and really easy to put together.
The background is simple, regular white cardstock which I distressed with
Time Holtz distress inks
in mustard seed, dried marigold and spiced marmalade, I tore post-its
to mask the edge. Then I masked a new edge, leaving a sliver of white in
between and used crushed olive and peeled paint.
I also masked areas to create "layers" of grass. I used Vilda stamps in Archival olive green.
In
the end I also tried out another of Tim Holtz famous techniques with
the distress inks, I used a small acrylic brush which I dipped in tap
water and just splattered across the background a la Polluck:) It was
plenty fun and I love the effect it had in the card as well.
The
branch is from Tim Holtz sizzix alteration holly branch. I glued Tilda
hanging from the branch and popped them both on foam dots. The sentiment
is MFT decorative doily, the smallest one, layered with a Sizzix
framelites circle. The circle is distressed with both crushed olive and
peeled paint. I stamped the sentiment with archival ink in olive green.
If you'd like to embellish it more you'll find beautiful flowers and charms
