Colors of Fall

I love the colors of Fall and wanted to incorporate them into this card. I used a rectangle as a mask for the center of my cardstock and used various Distress Inks to achieve the Fall coloring for the border (once again using the Ranger foam tool). The leaves are Spellbinders shapeabilities which were cut, embossed and stenciled. I inked the dies before cutting them and inked the "veins" after embossing with chalk inks. I am really impressed with the Tim Holtz line of Distress Inks. The colors are beautiful and the texture of the ink is wonderful to work with. It stays wet just long enough to emboss or add perfect pearls for a little shimmer.
