Simon Says - Emboss It

Hi Everyone, welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog. Thank you for joining us for last week's challenge and we hope you can join us this week too because

and the theme for this week is...

EMBOSS IT

The nights are drawing in, temperatures are cooling and soon the leaves on the trees will be changing colour, so I made a card to celebrate the arrival of Autumn using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Acorns 3D Texture Fade, Pumpkin Duo Thinlits and Simon Says CZ Designs Hello die.

I used Tim Holtz/Sizzix Acorns 3D Texture Fade to emboss Distress Watercolor card, coloured the detail with Carved Pumpkin, Peeled Paint and Walnut Stain Distress Oxide inks using Distress Blending Brushes and trimmed the panel to 4" x 5.1/4".

I die-cut Simon Says Hello from a background created with Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide ink and matted on to some Glassine I found in my stash.

I fixed the sentiment panel to the card, added a bow using Idea-ology Velvet Trims Neutral, a pumpkin die-cut using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Pumpkin Duo Thinlits and added splatters of Ground Espresso Reinker diluted with water.

I added an Idea-ology Seasonal Chit Chat Sticker, matted the panel on to Glassine and fixed to a white A2 white card blank.
