Impression Obsession DT Challenge: Fall Colors

This was a quick answer to the challenge to use Fall colors on our Impression Obsession cards! The card base is embossed with a Fiskars texture plate, next panel sponged and stamped with "How Do I Love Thee?", and the leaf is a diecut, covered with handmade paper. The focal panel is watercolored with Derwent pencils and a waterbrush. The heavy twine was a local find. Be sure to check out the links to the left for Fall creations by other team designers!

  3. What a gorgeous card for being "quick and easy!" That burnt orange is just my favorite color -- so I could look at your card all day! ;-) Hope things are starting to recover in your house!

  5. Absolutely stunning, Dina. Hope all have recovered in your household. It's not nice to have the whole household on sick bay. Well almost the whole household. ;-)

  7. Beautiful! The colors and textures make a lovely fall card. It's hard to believe fall is coming soon with it so hot out.

    I'm glad to see you have your power back. Now if you can just get your water back.
