Leaves of thanks



Now that it's fall, there are lots of cards with leaves. What I like about this card is that you can use it anytime. Leaves aren't just for fall. I stamped this Judikins stamp in black on a semi-gloss white paper. Then I took a solid rectangle stamp by Just for Fun and inked it with a dye based lime pad and stamped it over the leaves. Using the same stamp, I reinked it with a turquoise blue ink and stamped it again over the leaves and also over some of the green ink. As you can see, the overlapping inks interacted with one another and created a third color on the paper. Before putting the image on the blue card, torn vellum was glued behind the image. The word stamp was also inked with black ink.
