Indian Summer





Mynnette is our host for our new Challenge 76    at Crafty Cardmakers. The theme is called Indian Summer and she would like to see a scene using natural stamps and the colours, red, yellow and orange,  shown  below.
Please pop over for all the details and see the fantastic examples my team mates have been making.

Our Sponsor for this challenge is Di's Digi Downloads, offering a generous store voucher for the winner.


The base card is random stamped, but hard to see on the photo.
For the main scene I used Sheena Douglas stamps, the top layer is stamped onto acetate.
The swirls are Memory box die cuts.
All the colouring is Distress inks, dried marigold, victorian velvet and mustard seed, with the trimmings coming from my stash.
 The quote is, 'Fill each Day with Joy'.
Autumn colours in the garden and countyside are wonderful at this time of year,  especially when we get to walk through the woodlands with our Border Collie, Meg.

Thank you for stopping by, I realy appreciate your comments.
