Autumn Blessings

It's been awhile since I have posted anything on my blog. I am still new at this and would love for someone to give me ideas of how to set up a background for my blog. Something pretty. I had a link for this once but lost it. Anyway, I thought I would post another card. This time it is a fall card.

My Fall card for a friend

I started out with an off white CS for my base. Then I measured another piece of CS the size I thought would work as my focal piece. I sponged the CS with Distress inks while masking a "1 1/4" circle for the moon and then I used a Darice EF. I used a blender pen with Distress Inks to color the embossed image using Bundled sage and Tea Dye inks. Then I divided the CS as close to thirds as possible 

(1 7/8") each. I added the sentiment from Verve-Autumn Slendor and cut it out with Spellbinders scalloped rectangles-sm, sponged the edges with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Antique Linen and placed it in the right corner. Added the twine, covering the knot with a leaf also from Verve colored in SU Really Rust. I had gold round stickers and placed 3 of them in the left corner.

The stamps used on the inside were from TCP Studio-Autumn Harvest for the plants and the sentiment.  

I used the kissing technique for the plants and used Bundled sage and really rust-SU.

Thanks for stopping by.
