Autumn ATC and Tag

 

                 


Our new challenge at Tag-along (and ATCs) begins today with the optional theme chosen by Brenda of Autumn. 

For my ATC I've used a Paperartsy stamp Eclectica³ Mini 89 {Alison Bomber} I've seen this stamp used for Christmas but I decided with the autumn colours it worked for autumn too. I used two stencils, one from Funky Fossil (dots) and AALL & Create (leaves) to create the background.

For the tag I started with a skeleton leaf from a Papercraft Society box (and the twine) then cut a tag using an offcut of kraft card. I stamped a real leaf onto the tag a few times, leaving a block of colour around the centre image. Then placed the leaf which I had sprayed with inks and applied some gold paint to onto the negative space. The sentiment is from a Spellbinders stamp set.

Prize from AALL and Create, stencil, tag ephemera and designer card 


I'm entering my tag into the challenge at Anything Goes in a Card Free Zone.

Cinnamon and orange are certainly autumnal and you’ve made a lovely ATC.

Your leafy tag is gorgeous and it sounds like a fun technique.

Oh I love them both so much Lynn. The colours just radiate warmth and Autumn. I love your hot toddy stamp and gorgeous background and a pile of those leaves would definitely tempt me to FALL into Autumn.

Both have captured the lovely warm Autumnal feel Lynn. I wondered if it was a skeleton leaf, lovely affect achieved.
