Autumn birthday


The background was embossed using Embossalicious floral vine and swiped with firebrick distress ink. The coloured strips on the side are scraps left from gelli plate prints using various stencils. The leaf is one of many I bought years ago. The charm at the base of the leaf was originally silver, so I coloured it with alcohol ink.

Colours include these for Crafts4eternity R144: cinnamon:
