'Trees with Autumn Colours', is the new theme at Fashionable Stamping Challenges.
The stamps I used for the trees are from a Crafty Individuals set, these were double stamped to blot off the ink, giving a shadow effect. Next came a selection of distress inks, Spiced Marmalade, Barn Door and Crushed Olive. For this stage I dabbed areas with a sponge, until I was reasonably happy with the autuman shades. I used a Stormy Sky ink pad for the sky.
The fir tree is a die cut, shades with gilding wax.
I hope you will pop over and see what we all made. Our regular sponsor Flonzcraft is offering a super prize.
Please remember that we like to see stamping as the main focus to the entries.
Thank you for calling to see what I made, the comments you leave are always appreciated.
