Hello fall! (Neat and Tangled release week)

Hi there!

Welcome to Neat and Tangled's September release week! We're kicking things off with a closer look at Hello Fall, and I've paired it with a set of deer you'll meet later on this week:

Hello fall! (Neat and Tangled release week)

I love the big scripty "fall" sentiment and I knew I wanted it front and center on this card. I started out by stamping out all of the images: the deer (from Oh Deer, which will be shown on Wednesday), and a slew of leaves and mushrooms from Into The Woods. There are beautiful leaf images in Hello Fall, but I opted to use these instead because the weight of the black outlines matched better.

On the base layer of white cardstock, I wanted to give some subtle interest without saturating the paper with sponged ink. I opted for the Radiating Star stencil, and I dabbed on the lightest brown ink with very little pressure. I think it helps give more movement to the falling leaves!

  4. These two look perfectly settled in to enjoy a glorious fall day. I had a pair of twin fawns nibbling on my grapes yesterday. They are still pretty sour, hope they don't get a belly ache!!!!
