Got my fingers all painty for this card. I do love to play with paint and stuff - but usually do not take the time to do it. The background paper is watercolor paper which is colored with acrylic paint. I swiped a taupe color paint over the paper and then I dabbed on orange and a lightish tealish green. I really like the color - it is so warm. I then stamped the Penny Black tree in dark brown Colorbox Chalk Ink. I used a SRM Sticker to add a sentiment to the card. I was lucky I had to trim off a little strip so my sentiment strip matched the card background.
I am entering this card in three challenges.
Paint - Simon Says Stamp and Show
Fall Card - Oozak
Square Card - Cas-ual Friday
Yeah the week end is here - it is cool here in Wisconsin - so I plan on opening up the house and getting fresh air in and doing lots of clearing/cleaning and hopefully some creating.
