Happy Saturday everyone!! Fall is in the air in parts of the East Coast and I’m loving it!!! This is my Favorite time of the year. The Newton’s Nook Designs September Release is now in the shop and the new Shades of Autumn is a must have for all your Fall crafting!!

I started with a piece of Tim Holtz watercolor Distress card stock and I stamped each of the leaves several times using Fired Brick, Peeled Paint, Wild Honey, Fossilized Amber and Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Inks. I stamped each image into the ink and then I spritzed it lightly with the Distress Sprayer. Then press the image onto the cardstock and let sit for just a few seconds and lift. You will get a different look depending on how much water you add to the stamp.

Once the background images were all stamped I added some more water to move the color a little and dried the panel with my heat tool. I added some Vintage Photo Distress Ink around the edges with a Mini Ink Blending tool.  I added a few water splatters and removed the excess with a paper towel to create the Distress look. I wanted some gold so I added a few splatters of Distress Spray Stain in Tarnished Brass. Then I dried the panel and adhered it to the card base.

I created a Banner with the same color cardstock and the MFT Blue Prints #29. I stamped the sentiment in VersaMark ink and heat embossed with Gold Embossing powder. I adhered it to the side with some foam tape and added some mixed Gold Sequins for a little sparkle. You can save on your favorite Newton’s Nook Designs stamps and dies in the shop now until 9/19.

You can follow along as I create this card in the Video below…

Have a Great weekend!!!
