Well with temps close to 100 the last couple of days, you sure wouldn't think "fall" is near. BUT it is and I am so HAPPY!......my card...
Had to throw this one together rather quickly, have a hair appt. shortly. Anyway, I used the SC from Wednesday.
Today, we were to use a paper sack. So I did. I also tried Understandblue's Crayon Rubbed Embossing only a tad different. She used a white crayon I used fall colored crayons. I used a leaf eb folder, rubbed my crayons over top then brayered SU kraft white and DI rusty hinge. I did lightly color the leaves with re-inkers then added the white lines and dots.
Put my sketch together, adding the "fall" sentiment made from some really old letter punches and also used a MS leaf punch.
Well, time is running out have to get to my much needed hair appointment! Will return later this evening to leave comments.........TFL :0)
Hi Sis! How was your therapy today? Hi NC Sis!

I love how this technique with the Mutnik twist worked out!! No really, I Love it!! I still haven't tried this technique, but seeing your card will push me in that direction! This is Beautiful, Cathy!!
GREAT job with the sketch and your technique is outstanding!!! I've never heard of this technique but it sure is WOW! Love your touch of white! Striking!
Very pretty and a great use of the ef. We are having glorious fall weather. It was 70 with a light breeze and the sun is shining. I look out my dining room doors to about 40 acres then there is woods. The trees are beginning to change. Autumn is my favorite season.
