Fall Trees and Thanksgiving
>> Wednesday, October 25, 2023
Hello Crafty Friends!
I have an easy card to share featuring the lovely Hayrides Harvest Greeting which always makes me smile.
The greeting gives you lots of options for images, and this time I focused on trees (thinking next time it will be cider or acorns). The trees were super easy - I look a scrap piece of card stock dipped in gray watercolor paint and scraped it along in lines up and down. Then I just sponged on two different colors of yellow watercolor paint dabbing here and there followed by splattered, red, black and white paint. I like the effect, but next time I would use watercolor paper for the base instead of white cardstock, would use a credit card for making the trees, and would use acrylic paint for the dabbing of the yellow leaves (to hide the trees more). Still it was very fun and quick to make.
Hope you are enjoying Fall wherever you are and getting ready for the big upcoming holidays as they are coming on us fast.
Hugz,
Nancy

Really gorgeous trees and fall colors. The sentiment is great for your wonderfully painted trees.
Such a beautiful bg you created Nancy! You are so good at this creative painting stuff!!! I love the colors and white splatter!
Your sentiment is perfect!
I love this card Nancy!! Those trees are very cool and the white splatter (which I never would have thought of) adds so much!
This is beautiful! Wow, a real fall Jackson Pollock inspired masterpiece of a card! I love it :)
