WT336 ~Smashed Leaves~
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: hollerinastamps

 I LOVE using versamark so today's challenge was a no brainer for me!

For the versamark:
The leaf was stamped with timber brown on more mustard cs, sponged with mustard, cherry cobbler and old olive, then covered in versamark and clear embossed. I must have taken 10 pics trying to capture the glossy prettiness but to no avail!

For the rest of the card:
I used the acrylic smash technique (directions here in resources) for the colored panel. First, I stamped the leaves on acetate using timber brown stazon, then spread green/red and gold paint on the back. It came out *okay*...think I'd like to play around with this technique a bit more though. The main card panel is stamped with weathered bg in espresso and sponged with more mustard. Sentiment is from Verve and a sheer gold ribbon finishes it off.

This card is also for Sweet 'n Sassy's Release Party challenge 2 to stamp on acetate.

TFL! Have a blessed day!

Even though I am not at all ready to let go of summer, I love your Fall theme. Love use of intense warm colors and I only wish I could see that one leaf IRL. Sounds awesome.
