Hello everyone! September is here and it's time for a New Challenge at:
Nothing like a new month and a new season to get those creative juices flowing!
Fall is my favorite season to craft...all those rich colors!
I decided to make a fall inspired slimline encouragement card using the
To begin I composed and printed out my design with the sentiment onto Neenah
80lb. Classic Cream card stock.
I love using this Classic Cream as an alternative to Solar White. I die cut my
panel using a slim line stitched die. About 2 weeks ago I broke my wrist and
coloring images with colored pencils is much easier than markers (it's the taking
the caps on and off that hurts!). So I used Arteza Colored Pencils.
I used a variety of reds, oranges and yellows. Then added in browns and
aqua blues.
Arteza Colors used:
A100, A077, A073, A066, A017, A059, A004
A078, A050, A072, A049, A112, A060, A039
I mounted this colored panel onto a card base that measures
3 1/2" x 8 1/2" made of the same cream card stock. As a final
embellishment I used 3 tiny transparent aqua crystals.
And that finished my card!
I hope you enjoyed today's tutorial! Such a beautiful image!
