Challenge 99
Anything Goes With an optional twist Autumn
Ingredients:-Anything Goes With an optional twist Autumn
Welcome back to the IKEsWORLD challenges :) do pop on over to IKEsWORLD to join in the challenge, it is always so much fun and Ike produces the most amazing stamps, everything from off the wall to cute and fluffy :) :) :)
Another challenge I was a bit stuck with as I never feel comfortable working with these colours, I am a blue and purple gal hahaha. I know so many folks love Autumn but for me it means the onset of winter with super short days and long long nights, lots of rain and wind and altogether a totally rubbish time of year weather wise so it is something I certainly don't celebrate. I do have a good friend who loves Autumn so this card is winding its way to the USA to adorn her mantlepiece :). Ike very kindly drew me a bunch of leaves to work with which I used both to create the collage background paper and also printed tons of leaves in a reduced size and fussy cut them to make the pile of leave which have fallen off the tree. The background paper was designed in Photoshop and printed out with no colour, I then used my Distress Oxides to add the colour.
Rather like the outcome and throughly enjoyed all the fussy cutting of the leaves, maybe I am an oddball but I do find fussy cutting rather relaxing, maybe it is because I can have a lethal weapon (my super sharp scissors) in my hand and can snip away at my non feeling paper to relieve the pent up annoyance with society hahahaha and at least this is a legal way to relieve my frustrations hehehehe.
