Graphicus Challenge - Autumn Leaves



Apologies to those of you who have seen these before, but these cards are going to be my entry for this month's Graphicus challenge. The stamps are all from Graphicus, using the Nature's table plate, the Wild meadow plate and the Arboretum plate. I couldn't decide which I liked best, so posted them both. They were made for Steve's birthday back in January. They were done Michelle Zindorf style, starting with colouring the mushrooms and clear embossing them, adding the background later, mostly with Adirondack inks. I hope you like them, and thanks for looking!

Sorry I've missed some of your lovely cards in recent posts Sally but I've been a bit poorly since the weekend. I think it was a 'mild' dose of the dreaded Swine Flu.

Anyway, I'm on the mend now and these two cards are stunning. I love the way you emphasised the toadstools with the clear embossing.

Good luck with the Graphicus challenge. These cards certainly fit the bill.

So pleased you posted this with reminder of Michelles bog, so much inspiration, but not been lately.

I so love the top card, you have such a great way of combining colour and different elements.

These are absolutely stunning - and really 'jump' off the page, I can almost smell the crisp autumnal weather.
