To everything there is a season........

Still enthralled........while I had all my materials out from yesterday's blog post, I made another card to enter the beautiful Tuesday Trigger for this week.


This uses another stamp from the Our Daily Bread Randi's Song stamps, an excerpt from Ecclesiastes 3.  I am growing fonder of this paint splattering thing, so after stamping the sentiment I watered down some picked raspberry and spiced marmalade inks, dipped a paint brush in, and splattered across the panel.  The leaves are leftovers from yesterday's post, using a Lawn Fawn's Stitched Leaves die on a panel that I sponged with Picked Raspberry and Mustard Seed, then splattered with water.  My sentiment panel was then framed with brown, affixed to a card base, then added my leaves and some Doodlebug Designs mini pearls.  Here's a detail picture:

Thanks, Cath, for a wonderful inspiration this week!

With inks like Marmalade and Pickled Raspberry, your card is good enough to eat! Seriously lovely things going on here, movement, color, sentiment, and splatters (huge fan of splattering!)

Gorgeous! I'll bet the paint spattering thing is very freeing!

Missed these beauties - aren't pink leaves the greatest. Our tree out front is finally getting to the reddish and purplish stage on the 20 percent of leaves that are still hanging.
