It's hard to see in the photo, but the image background is actually colored tan. I used a Spectrum Noir Marker to roughly color the white card stock. I like the look - it's uneven and gives the paper a textured appearance. I used CTMH Chocolate ink on the stamp. The leaves are stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with SN markers. I fussy cut them and outlined the edges in black. I added a few sequins for a finishing touch.
I'm entering these challenges: Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Thanks/Thanksgiving; Mema's Crafts November Challenge: Anything Goes; Stamplorations November Challenge - Stamps and Layers; and Paula Holifield Crafts - Clean and Simple.
Have a wonderful week!

ReplyDeleteLike the way you colored the tan background with the spaces Sheila... really enhances the depth, as does the brown printed Subway Art and then the black border on top. The sequins are a nice touch to the 'falling' leaves.
