Tuesday with Tara {take 69}
Happy Tuesday! I’ve got one more autumn card for you today… it’s a simple one that uses some of the pieces from my Blessings Banner I shared a couple weeks ago.
I love when I’ve got pieces left from a project that I can put to use on a tag or card, and even more so when it comes together quickly and easily! My parent’s anniversary was last week so I was determined to get a card in the mail so it would arrive on time (crossing my fingers it did!). I used the same red cardstock my leaf was cut from to cut these words by Tim Holtz (I stuck some strips of Sookwang/Be Creative tape to the back side of the cardstock to make it easier to adhere these intricate words. Next time I’ll use wider tape, which I found after I was done. lol).
The printed paper was part of my pennants that had been trimmed for layering, it already had some small holes punched in it, so I wrapped my twine through those to add a bow and rest my leaves in it.
A bit of Distress Ink through a simple stencil gives a bit of extra detail to make the rest stand out. I love how the bronze Distress Stain shimmers on the leaves- I think these will always be one of my fave Tim Holtz dies!
I hope you can take some time today to enjoy what is left of the beautiful autumn colors where you live… have a creative week!
Inky hugs,
Tara
