Fall thank you

Hi everyone. It's time for another challenge over at The House That Stamps Built. This week our challenge is Thankful for fall. Use Autumn colors, thanks, Thanksgiving, etc.



I used the solid maple leaf stamp and rusty hinge distress ink to create the background on this. I smooched the ink pad onto my craft mat, spritzed with water, then picked that up with the stamp. This created a wonderful watercolor effect once I stamped onto the cream colored cardstock. Added a dot border using a die from Gina Marie Designs and then added the thank you and backed it with vellum. Die is from Simon Says Stamp.

 

There's a new challenge every week over at  The House That Stamps Built, and you don't have to use Repeat Impressions stamps to link up or win. Also, for my blog readers: Enjoy the 10% discount code to the Repeat Impressions Store posted on the sidebar.

 

One lucky person will win a $25 Repeat Impressions Gift Certificate on the first Wednesday of every month – Good luck!



Also, check out our Rock Star blogs to see what they did with the challenge.
