With a day off today, I thought I'd take time to enter another card into the Impression Obsession Falling LEaves challenge. I always love a pop of rich colour against a blue background. I stamped the Maple in Versamark and embossed with Iridescent Ice. The Brushos I used were Prussian Blue, Turquoise, Grey and Ost Blue. I trimmed it down, swiped the edges with Versamark and embossed with gold EP, also adding a sprinkling of Chunky Gold across the card.
Sentiment stamped on black, punched out and edged with a white pen.
The leaf is an IO die cut from watercolour paper. I spritzed it, coloured with re-inkers and when dry, embossed with clear EP, sprinkling a little gold into the last layer. Edged with a gold pen and popped it up on foam. Sorry I couldn't capture the shimmer from the Iridescent Ice :-(.
