Rainbow Lady - falling leaves

It is almost time for the leaves to start falling here on the east coast of the US. We have new grass planted. We don't want the leaves to fall for a few more weeks so the grass can be well established before we have to rake leaves.

The theme for Rainbow Lady's Challenge is Falling Leaves. I used these leaves a few days ago on my other blog. I didn't like that card so I cut the leaves off to use for this card.

Ticket to Ride - TIO

This is my entry to Tag it On, where the theme to the challenge is Ticket to Ride. The ticket is googled. The trolley is from Dover. My music background stamp has nothing at all written on it so I don't know who made it. Does anyone know? The border punch is by Fiskars.

So Artful

Here is my entry for So Artful. The beautiful background was provided for us to use. I added Dezinaworld images (crow, flowers, girl, music) and a corner that Junibears allows me to use.

The Whole of the Moon

Here is my tag for Tag it On (The Whole of the Moon) challenge. The background has lots of dark moonshadow mists on it. The moon is cut with a circle punch from gold color card stock. The bird is a stamp. The trees were stamped in moonshadow midnight copper embossing powder. Around the edges I used Ranger copper embossing powder that Laura gave me. The hanger for the tag is copper wire.

Torso ATC - Art Cards

Using the torso template provided by Kati of the Art Cards challenge, I cut out a piece of decorative paper showing a vintage bride. I stamped the flower onto the card. Then I colored the sepia image with watercolor pencils.

The 3 Muses - Jars and Bottles

I know that this is weird for me, but I wanted to use my Stubby Stampers jars and bottles stamp for the 3 Muses challenge this week. I also wanted to use the shave cream/ink background I had made last week. The tall bottle is from Dover Publications.

TMTA - Leaves

Here is my ATC for Think Monday Think ATCs - Leaves. My background is cardstock stamped with various distress inks using rubber stamps and one hand-cut maple stamp. The maple leaf stamp is one I created out of a foam door hanger. The wooden leaf is a gift from Lindy's Stamp Gang, included with my order.
