Wonderful site for today's Inspiration Challenge (IC362). I chose this Fall Wreath for my inspiration.
I actually made this last week but never did any post or upload w/ it. I wanted to at least try to do something normal by entering a challenge. My apologies for the short post but our little parrot Odie left us this week and I just haven't been able to make myself create anything. He was a member of our family for almost 27 yrs and was never a pet...more like a little child, really, He was always my little green kid. We are so thankful and so blessed to have had him in our lives.
The top panel was white and I had it left over after die cutting a large scallop circle out of it. I sponged on the fall colored inks then stamped the greeting. The apple basket w/ pumpkins was stamped on a separate piece of white, colored w/ Copics and Tombow markers then the sponged panel was attached on top. The leaves are sort of a two step image. The solid leaf silhouette was scribbled w/ Tombow markers, spritzed, then stamped. The coordinating outline leaf was then stamped on top and I cut them out. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50
The images are all from DRS Designs and the details are on my blog: The Write Stuff.
