Another FUN challenge is starting over at The Four Seasons Challenge Blog and we hope that you'll join us for this year's first Fall themed challenge. There's a gorgeous inspiration photo, lots of great inspirational art from the Design Team, and lots of great ideas to get your Autumn creativity going if it's not already there. Just the deep rich colors of Autumn are always enough to draw me in to a good challenge.
This is my inspiration card for this challenge, and I hope it helps you remember to keep it simple. I incorporated Autumn colors by using some amazing Tim Holtz Leaf Fragments Dies. White and green cardstocks make my layered base. I painted the white watercolor paper with oxide inks to give color to my background, and I also painted scraps of the paper to match my card and then I cut the leaves using Tim Holtz Leaf Fragments Thinlits Dies available at Stamp Simply.
The stamped sentiment is also from Stamp Simply and can be found in their Falling Leaves Stamp Set. It stands out so nicely on the yellowish background surrounded by the pretty Autumn leaves. The card is quite simple, yet it says Autumn in a BIG way. We hope you're inspired to create some Fall themed cards to share with us over at The Four Seasons Challenge. See you there.
