Basteltraum's Challenge #93: FALL

 

Hello my friends!

Fall is just waiting around the corner, can you feel it, too? Although the days are still pretty warm, you can tell it will arrive soon. I adore fall with all its colorful shades of yellows, oranges and reds! 

So the current bastel-traum challenge is all about it!

I stamped a tree with waterproof pigment ink onto a piece of watercolor paper. Then I colored a tiny leaves stamp with different watercolor markes and stamped them onto my tree. A waterbrush helped to spread the ink around my tree and blend in some harsh lines I might got from stamping. At the end I added some distress ink into the tree to brighten it up even more. The birdie and the swing are also stamped with waterproof pigment ink. Then I drew a little line to give the tree a ground and added some greenish color to it and blended it out with a water brush as well. To finish off my card, I stamped the sentiment with the same waterproof ink as the rest. Voilà, here we have a lovely fall greeting card - sometimes, simple is best :-)

I hope you will play along with us, see you there!

Enjoy fall and happy crafting!

Hugs,
