This is for Robin's fun Free for All challenge - Fall Colors (said in my best American accent), which is translated to Autumn Colours in my normal Aussie accent.
This was made by colouring watercolour paper with distress inks and bucket loads of water. Unfortunately it dried about 10 shades lighter than I was hoping for.
Next step was to drip a green reinker at the top of the paper, blast it with a water sprayer (big spray, not mist), then holding the paper upright, let the inky water run down the paper.
I then repeated this process using an orange re-inker, starting about 1/3rd from the top. Finished by dripping red re-inker 2/3rds from the top.
I then punched out a gazillion leaves, folded each leaf in a few places and scrubbed the fold with distress ink using a dauber.
Leaves were then adhered to a cardboard circle. Die cut bird on branch from a left over piece of alfoil adhered to card (and coloured with copic markers).
