Autumn Feeling...

Happy Wednesday,

Today I am sharing a card, again made with the poinsettia, but that to me has a real autumn feeling to it with the flowers made in peach foam with brown pigment ink edges.

I made the background card using my Bee Balm ovals matching the large semi circle die against itself to make a circle of flowers for the centre.  I shaded through the die with brown Izink Pigment ink pad and an ink blending tool so that the pattern of the flowers show.  I cut this to a square and matted and layers as shown.

The flowers are made by cutting peach Craft Artist foam ( launching on Hochanda on the 6th November) and i simply twisted the petals to elongate each petal to give a dissipated flower as shown.  I added green stamens in the centre and placed these on a collection of leaves.

I made the card as shown which has, to me at least, a real autumnal feel!

Enjoy...

    Lovely card today, the flowers look great (not like a Poinsettia making it a very versatile Die).

    So pretty and just like Fall, not Christmas. You are very creative as you see some many possibilities in every die.
