Autumn ... well known for the cooling temperatures and the changing of the scenery. The trees are transformed from glossy shades of green to gorgeous shades of red, brown, orange and gold. It is also a time to celebrate Halloween and Thanksgiving. So many options!
That is basically the challenge posed by the Design Team over at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge on October 5, 2015. And since autumn is, indeed my favorite season, I decided to resurrect a number of my wood-mounted stamps and my autumnal Distress Ink colors and see what I could come up with!

And since autumn is, indeed my favorite season, I decided to resurrect a number of my wood-mounted stamps and my autumnal Distress Ink colors and see what I could come up with! The result was this card:
I stamped the "Fall Leaves" stamp on white card with Archival "Jet Black". I then water-colored the leaves using a detail water brush and Distress Markers, and once dried, I fussy cut the parts of the banner using a craft knife.
I stamped random leaves in Vinrtage Photo" on an ivory card blank and blended "Old Paper" on the card through the paper from which I cut the leaf banner.
I stamped the sentiment on ivory card, trimmed it and layered it on forest green.
The sentiment was attached with redline tape while I used foam squares to mount the pieces of teh banner slightly to the left and down from the blended "Old Paper" shadows...
