Hello folks, We have reached September, the months are whizzing by now and there are only 3 more till the end of our calendars. I've really enjoyed making these:0)Here is my portrait version, I wanted to make a strong contrast with the Autumnal leaves and was totally inspired by the fabulous natural show that's been going on this past month.
At the Craft Barn Blog there are step by step pictures illustrating how I made this page.
I used Sizzix Flowers Branches and leaves set 656064 medium die.
Crafty Individuals stamp CI309
Below is the landscape version, using
Spellbinders Shapeabilities, Elegant posts
Distress crackle paint clear rock candy
Crafty Individuals 209 winter trees
And Distress inks
crushed olive and weathered wood, pumice stone.
Hope you like :0)
There is a lovely event at the Craft Barn today it's the Christmas Gift Minifest, lots of free demo's pop in if you can, details on the link!
