Today is wet and grey, it definitely feels like autumn is knocking at the door, which is likely why I made this card.
I used the reverse side of a cream coloured linen card, although in the photo it looks quite white!. I started with the leaf which is part of a Tim Holtz / Stampers Anonymous Halloween stamp and stencil set (THMM167). I used three shades of Versafine Clair ink, starting with the lighter colour of Avocado, then shady lane on the outer edges then Acorn brown ink of the very edge of the leaf.
Next, I used "Gathered Twigs" Distress Oxide Ink through the splatters part of the same stencil the stamp came with.
I then used the Tim Holtz / Stampers Anonymous String stencil THS004 with two shades of Distress Oxide Inks: Wild Honey and Rusty Hinge, fading the colours out towards the left and the top of the card.
I used a black Posca Pen for some black splatters. I then used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink to stamp the sentiment, which is part of the Tim Holtz / Stampers Anonymous "Tiny Text CMS394" stamp set for the "Make a wish" greeting.
This is a beautiful CAS card using the Tim Holtz String stencil, and also some splatters from the set featuring this pretty leaf which looks terrific over the top Sam, and finished with a lovely sentiment. x
