Imagine Fall

Hi,happy thursday. Hope you are having a great week. The weather here in the UK is unseasonably good and set to last until the weekend.

I made a card using my Imagine today!!! I've just got my hands on the Enjoy the Seasons cart and there are some beautiful images on it.


I am entering this over at Whimsical Wednesdays - to use fall colours and a handmade embellishment.
Fantabulous Cricut - Leaves are Falling

These are both great challenge blogs with an amazing DT,so do go check them out and join in the fun.

For my handmade embellishment I made a metal leaf.






I only have the above alcohol inks and decided to add more stream and butterscotch to make it greener,with hindsite I preferred it how it was.. like this! Also I could have used my promarkers or copics to colour the metal as they are alcohol inks! Brain wasn't in gear at the time! Lol!


I curled the edges and added lots of 3d foam for dimension. Added a  bit of doodling and only inked the edges on my sentiment which was from My Creative Time.
I wanted a clean look to my card so didn't ink the die cuts....which was incredibly hard for me not to do!!!
Metal leaf attached with silicone glue.

Thanks for looking and have a good day.
Hugs,

These are not part of the challenge but thought I would share them. To know more click here.They are in a previous post when I was making ATC's and playing with alcohol inks and Tim Holtz dies. :) They remind me of fall.

  4. Your Imagine card is beautiful. The metal leaf embellishment you made is gorgeous. Looks like a brooch my mother used to wear in the Fall. So funny the Thursday Tutorial I did today is on Alcohol Inks. Thanks for joining in this week with the FCCB Falling Leaf challenge.
