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!
