Autumn mid month WLSC

 Hi Everyone, my DT card today is for We Love Stamping. This month, we would love to see your cards with the theme from Emma of  

Autumn
   
 

More unused stamps used for this card, I went with this seed head stamp, (I thought it was seed heads!). I found some autumnal paper and decided to stamp on it. Then the seed heads were coloured with DI's, using oranges and yellows, although the oranges don't seem to have shown as well. I stamped a sentiment, knowing what a wicked sentiment I was adding onto the insert. I layered it onto die cut brown card.

It was then I decided to use a cream base card and bend the front in half. I added a ribbon which I thought matched and added the stamped layer to the rest of the half fold.

stamp - Woodware "Autumn Flowers"
ink - Memento black
sentiment stamp - magazine freebie
inks - Distress Inks, mustard seed, spiced marmalade, ripe persimon
paper - Nana's Digi Scraps 2012
ribbon - Dovecraft
insert sentiment stamps - Creative Craft Products
 
I cut the paper to size and attached it to the insert, then I went into fun mode, no idea why, that's how my mind works sometimes. I stamped the sentiments and then for more fun added the balloons. The black sentiment says "This Young".

 
Don't forget, your image must be hand coloured. We now require At least one stamped element on entries. Those of you like us, who love to stamp, we would still love you to enter your fully stamped entry.
Three prizes from AALL and Create, two of border stamps and third two stencils

Gorgeous Autumnal card and love the insert sentiment. I think seed heads are classed as Autumns flowers as they are usually very pretty in their own way

Love those seed heads. They look great in those autumnal colours. You have enhanced them beautifully with your colouring. Wish that sentiment wasn't true! xx

You've made such good use of the stamp onto the patterned paper. That pretty ribbon is the perfect finishing touch too.
