Good morning! It's Holly posting today. Is it fall where you live yet? We are finally out of the 100's, but with the temps in the 90's here, it's not quite fall yet. LOL Hopefully we will see some cool temps before the end of the month!
I love the new fall stamps from Technique Junkies that were released this month. I paired the Dotted Branches with the Pumpkin Spice sentiment for this autumnal pumpkin-y card above. Some dark brown ink brushed on the edges gives the sentiment and the background a warm glow.
While I was playing with the Dotted Branches, I started wondering how it would look on a winter card. I stamped it with Versamark onto some gold paper and then covered it with gold embossing powder. After I tapped off the excess and melted the powder with a heat tool, I set it aside to cool off. I stamped the Joyeux Noel with a deep merlot ink and matted it with gold and merlot cardstocks. The gold Dotted Branches panel was adhered to a merlot card base and then I adhered the sentiment to the background.
I love how this Dotted Branches looks on this gold cardstock! Now I have a background stamp that is perfect for the fall season as well as the winter/holiday season.
