Autumn at Try It On Tuesday

Our new challenge at TRY IT ON TUESDAY is called 'Autumn Colours'
Despite the mess left at the back of my garden from next doors magnificent Oak tree I find Autumn to be one of the most serene times of the year. The colours are simply beautiful and do much to soothe a troubled soul.
Here's my card


Used a 3D embossing folder from Tim Holtz, 

I swiped it over with a Versamark pad after embossing and added some copper embossing powder.

Some ink blending using Fired Brick, Peeled Paint, Crackling Campfire and Rusty Hinge.

I have struggled to take a good pic that will show off the copper embossing which is disappointing! At a time when I am finding fault with so many things I was actually reasonably OK with this make and the effect made by the embossing powder!

Thanks for looking today and hope you will join us. x

There are certainly lots of beautiful autumn colours all around this year. I'm sure this looks wonderful when seen for real and can imagine the glow with the copper tones you used.

These leaves have great dimension Viov and the colours you used for the background and to colour the leaves are wonderfully Autumnal and the added copper embossing adds dimension as well as a bit of extra beautiful colour, and finished perfectly with the three added leaves and a die cut sentiment added to the brown strip across this beautiful card. x

I'm with you about loving Autumn colours and I think you've captured them beautifully on this card. I can imagine how rich the glints of the copper embossing will be in daylight.
