Team Hop - Fall is in the air

Welcome!! It is Team Hop Day and we are sharing all things Fall & Halloween.

I hadn't played with the Trucking Along Stamp set yet and

thought a fall coloured truck might be fun!!

I also have this package of this Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper

which hasn't gotten much Love.

I stamped the truck in Crushed Curry..I tried the Wild Wheat but I am just not loving that colour as a stamped image. It is fantastic for watercolouring and blending and

I have even used the cardstock.

But it is a Big No for me when it comes to stamping...

One of the pieces of dsp has this sectioned out piece (below)

that you can cut up for various card fronts.

I chose the one below...Do you notice it is not the same colour? I took my blending brushed and added some Wild Wheat and Copper Clay to the background to add a fall blush to the background. This particular piece measured 4 x 5.25 which fit perfectly on the front of my landscape card.

I also cut a banner from the Stylish Shapes dies,

blended the same colours and stamped a sentiment.

Then I tied some linen thread around the middle and finished it with a bow.

Then I added some incolour dots in Wild Wheat and Copper Clay.

Below you can see where I stamped on the inside of my card.

I coloured with stamp 'n write markers as blends will bleed through the back of my card. If you only have blends then I would stamp and colour on a seperate piece of cardstock and glue it in the card like I usually do for coloured cardstock.
