Autumn just for you

This is for Stamps + fun = creativity 63: sketch:

It's also for the colours for SPCC116:

The background paper is BG Indian summer and the strips are BG green at heart.

I used two stamps from Tattered angels rockin' renaissance tattered textures set, putting them together and firstly inking up with spiced marmalade DI and then touching some areas with fired brick DI. I tore round an oval template and distressed the edges lightly with fired brick, as well as the edges of the strips. I've used another of my stored material leaves - this is like a voile material encrusted with sequins and glitter.

Inspired by the song Autumn by Barbra Streisand (extract video here) for 365 cards day 194: personal play list, also for Secret crafter Saturday 151: inspired by a song.

This is also for:

The crafty pad 138: goodbye summer - autumnal colours
Lexi 48: autumn
Craft us crazy 16: autumn colours
Pile it on 37: layer it
Paper creations ink 8: vintage or distressed look
Heartsong inspirations 14: distressing and/or use paint
PaperPlay 36: use two or more stamped images
Stamp something: something to say goodbye 'anything goes' (sadly, their last challenge)
Stamp n doodle: anything goes
Creative card crew: anything goes
Crafty boots: anything goes
Papertake: anything goes
