Happy Tuesday! Hope you’ve had a great week and enjoyed a bit of cooler weather wherever you are! I was inspired by a full sheet of pretty watercolor paper I had sitting on my desk (another project with Colorburst that took a turn I wasn’t expecting… so was set aside for another day!) and it looked like autumn to me, in shades of red, orange & yellow! I paired it with this large swirl die by Tim Holtz- love it! The die was cut from my card front and the background paper cut slightly smaller than my card front & carefully adhered to the inside using Matte Multi Medium.
For a focal image, I decided to use a Prima doll, whose dress was paper pieced from the same watercolor background paper, with the addition of some leaves stamped on it in coral ink. The same leaves were stamped around the swirl cut outs on the card front.
A few details that finish off my card include simple sentiment stickers along the bottom of the card and a bit of bling and lace added to the dress. The finished card is pretty simple, but I gotta admit it didn’t come together terribly quick & easy. It wouldn’t take long to duplicate though 🙂
sending inky hugs your way…

Looks great up close too!
