Tweet Leaves Fall is Here

It looks as though the 80 days of perfect weather has left Western Washington and fall has arrived.  In honor of the changing color, school starting, and well the rain we made this lovely fall card at our Lakewood get together a few days ago.

Tip #1 – Start coloring the image with the lightest colored markers first.

Tip #2 – after you completely color the image in “huff” on your colored image before stamping it onto your paper.  Be sure to press firmly and hold the stamp in place a few extra seconds.

Tip #3 – Lightly sponge over the woodgrain texture to create dimension.
