Fall Birthday Card For A Friend....


I love to use season appropriate colors for birthday greetings. Since October is so colorful outside when the leaves change.....what better than to use the same color theme in card making? This card uses brilliant orange, brown, green, vanilla and kraft (tan) colors. The front of the card is sewn with waxed linen thread and embellished with ribbon and die-cut flowers. Love it love it love it!

I have been taking a class on Mixed Media and I love it....unfortunately I am very slow at it.  There is a bit of stamping on this project but it is mostly paint, artist spackle, india ink, chalk and gel medium.  This is very different than the usual work I do.....and I am glad that I tried it.  Also I used Tim Holtz digital pictures and several of his stamps.  I used pan pastels and inca gold on various stencils.  The little girl in the picture is my Mother when she was young.  It was fun to incorporate a family picture with the art.  Also the date on the project says March 31st....but my camera is not displaying the correct date.  It is always something!  Thanks for stopping by to look at my project!  Why don't you try something you haven't done before?  You may like it!
