The Rubbernecker stamp was inked with Distress markers in fall shades, then spritzed. I think some Zig markers were also brushed around to add more color after stamping/spritzing - in places that looked like they needed it.
A stitched frame die was adhered over top of the stamped piece (because I had cut it too small...had to fiddle to get it to fit inside this frame). Then an old Tim Holtz 12x12 Fall pack was cut up to create the mat behind. Used VOS Paper Studio card pack of vintage sepia colors, to get the other design papers. Top right stitched rectangle cut from Sue Wilson Noble die, and an MFT angled die cut the spotted paper. The sentiment was embossed with Brutus Monroe Detail Copper. Tha's all folks!
Hoping that you have a wonderful weekend, with great weather. Our humidity has been less, and the morning & evening temps much cooler - but the day still warms up nicely. With less humidity, though, it's quite pleasant!
Big hugs - God Bless.
It's so gorgeous!! The tree is so beautiful!! I love the colors!! Stunning, Mary!! Have a great weekend!! Big hugs :)

Mary, gorgeous fall colours and love the layering of your DP cardstock.
ReplyDeleteMary, that is a beautifully coloured tree
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tree, MAry. She will love it!
ReplyDeleteOur neighbours have 4 or 5 huge flowering Cherry trees across the alley from our back deck. We love the blossoms in the spring. the buds and leaf growth during the late spring and the gorgeous colours of the trees as they get ready to drop their leaves. The privacy they provide is sadly missed all winter!
Such a wonderful fall tree and I love the stitched frame you used.
ReplyDeleteHi Mary, That's lovely. Glad you found it and made it into such a fab card.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a nice day. Sue

I'm loving your water colored tree as much as a real one when it's leaves turn to autumn colors! The framework is beautiful and your neighbor is going to love the fact that this card was designed after the beautiful tree on her property! Nicely done :)
ReplyDeleteThat tree is absolutely fabulous Mary and the mix of colours is perfect for Fall and further enhanced with the stitched frame and brown layer, and the two DP's look great in the background too. Your neighbour will love this. x
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful fall tree, Mary! I love the angle of the patterned paper! Our leaves haven't changed much here. I noted a bit of color starting in one yesterday. Maybe these cooler temps with start them changing. I am really enjoying the cooler, less humid weather!
ReplyDeleteAh, look at the gorgeous fall tree, marvelous colors! I also like how you put the papers together for the background.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Autumn birthday card Mary!

What a glorious maple tree you have created here. Your neighbour will be delighted to receive this card from you. We have had a lovely day weatherise and I i managed to give the front lawn a good weeding and probably now it's last cut for the year. It has bounced back remarkabl y well from the drought conditions it had suffered with back in June/July. Hugs Mrs A.
ReplyDeleteThat is so beautiful and colored so well using water colors. I am sure it will be so appreciated by your neighbor too. It is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMary, your card is so gorgeous, the tree is fabulous, such gorgeous colours - just like the trees around us at the moment. So glad you found that image! Hugs, Anne xx
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful Mary, I love your colours and how you've used the colours, of course I love trees so this is right up my alley, have a good weekend, Kate x
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty Mary. Love the gorgeous fall colors of this. Your neighbor will adore it! So unique!
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely and your neighbor can now enjoy her tree all year long with this gorgeous card. Beautiful fall colors and a great idea to fill in with the Zigs. We had 60 mile an hour winds all day yesterday and a wind chill this morning of 25 degrees!
ReplyDeleteLove this fall beauty Mary! Your neighbor is going to enjoy that I'm sure. We have trees in the front of our house like that. They are maple and they are always the last to turn and when they do they are a brilliant red color. I know I love them in the fall. I hope the neighbors do to. Thanks for sharing this gorgeous card! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful card Mary, I love your water coloured tree and lovely Autumn colours.
