I made this for todays sketch challenge. I don't use the fall colors enough, and since the leaves are starting to turn here, I thought I'd use some of those lovely, vibrant colors of the fall.
I actually was inspired also, by a butterfly that I made to go with yesterdays card, but just didn't quite fit the color scheme.
My colors today are old olive, (base) real rust, so saffron, DCWV dp, and whisper white.
I used my markers and stamped using black, pumpkin and olive. I outlined the image for definition. The butterfly is in black and pumpkin pie.
