Shades of Autumn


Over at Make my Monday this weeks challenge is an Autumn theme using a Resist technique.
Another  opportunity to get out the butterscotch  dabber, a stack of distress inks including rusty hinge, brushed corderoy, bundled sage etc. The clear embossing powder was a definate. So I won't bore you with the details, but the layers were made using a selection of these items, following techniques as best I could,  that are taught by  the master of grunge Tim Holtz.
There is a little wooden leaf under the bow, but as its been a very dull day here the photos were hard to take.

Thankyou for stopping by to take a look, I realy appreciate you calling.
