NEW FALL lo-FALLING IN LOVE WITH FALL

THIS LO was published on Discovery drive in SCRAPSTREET MAGAZINE April issue

This lo was ETSY inspired challenge winner- thanks!!

American crafts have this fall challenge this week

and the only cardstock I have at home is American crafts- so I decided to do new lo but with some self recycling- to use my own self made embells from other los or cards I did some time before and don't like anymore or don't need for future use.

I used my own sketch-or actually no sketch at all and these fall colors.

The products are:Olive- burgondy- melon texured American Crafts cardstock

American crafts Thickers- green foam
American crafts clear LAVISH stamps- so cute- all these boots and birds and cage and clowds.

Prima PP and silk leaves

I also used 3D glue for drops, birds, boots

The background stamp is Impression obsession huge stamp

And for other products- Tim Holtz grungeboards painted with acrylics ,

chipboard tree painted with acrylics and crackle paint , beads and 3D glue (my own recycling from fall card), Provo leaves rub ons, some Dress it up buttons, Bingo card from Jenny Bowlin and some wood and metal clips, mesh- reused one

As for techniques- misting arouns the cut circle and distressing the circle from inside, hand stitching inside the circle, stamping, using 3d decoupage on leaves,outside cardstock distressing
