So, before I announced the winers, I'm going to show you my project for today. Here is my card:
1. First we are going to prepare paper for all die cuts. So, let's take first piece of watercolor paper and color it with different Distress Inks: Peeled Paint, Rusty Hinge, Fossilized Amber, Fired brick...
2. Now spray a water on it, to cause colors to move and blend. Leave it to dry or speed the drying process with heat gun.
4. With Autumn Foliage cut foliage out of previous colored watercolor paper. This will give beautiful autumn look. If you want, you can distress edges with the same distress inks, which were used for coloring the paper.
5. Take another piece of watercolor paper and color just with different shades of orange distress inks and spray it with water. Cut the pumpkins out of it. Distress pumpkins edges with darker shade of orange distress inks. Color also the pumpkin stems with green distress ink. and glue everything together.
7. Now take additional piece of white cardstock and glue all die cuts as shown on photo:
8. Cut also one strip out of white paper and stamp happy fall or any other sentiment on it. Glue it under dies cuts. If you want, you can aslo flick some droplets of gold shimmer spray and let it dry. Now, glue everything together on cardbase and card is finished.
