Fall Sympathy

>> Saturday, November 10, 2012

My card today was made for my husband's stash at work.  I have started making cards for his office.  He told me they don't "have to be so fancy". So hard not to add embellies and stuff!  I am so happy with how this turned out. I started with a piece of white paper and using acrylic paints, painted in this order a thin layer of  modern red, terra cotta and then butterscotch.  I dried it with my heat gun and then stamped the cattails in noir black and painted celery with acrylics on the leaves.  The stems of the cattails were painted with mushroom and lastly, the cattails were done with sparkly fluff.  The sentiment was stamped in noir black.  The poppy parade layer was embossed with the dot folder.  
Have a great weekend everyone!

WOW! I don't think I've ever seen a background like this one - very cool effect with the stamping on top. Wish I could see this one in person!
