PDCC #151

Hi all, I have a card today for this week's Play Date Cafe. I haven't played along here for a while, my time just seems to be running away from me - how is it almost October already??!

 I love the rich warm colours for this week, and I took some time out this morning to get a bit inky!

 Here's the colour palette:

To recreate these autumnal colours, I used a new Memento ink called Potter's Clay, such a lovely colour. For the green shade i used Bundled Sage Distress Ink, and for the Wine colour I used Memento Rhubarb Stalk.

First I stamped in Bundled Sage a background with my PTI stamps set Harvest Berries, with one of the smaller leaf images.

I then cut the label using my PTI Mat Stack 1 die, and stamped the frame from the Mat Stack 1 stamp set in Potter's Clay. The Sentiment is from Uniko Studios Fontiment fancies set, stamped in Rhubarb Stalk.

I then cut a couple of the leafy images using my Harvest Berries dies, and stamped the leaves in Bundled Sage and Frayed Burlap.

I topped these off with a twine bow and moss coloured gem.

I then inked a card base and kraft card panel with Antique Linen and Walnut Stain Distress inks, before stitching the stamped card to the kraft.

I then took some natural crochet lace, and coloured it this dark red using the Rhubarb Stalk ink. Wrapped this around the stamped card with some twine, and attached to the card base. 

Finally I added some moss gems to the label!

As well as The Play Date Cafe, I would like to enter this into this week's Tuesday Throwdown, which wants to see Fall Colors.

Thanks for stopping by
