Firey Sycamore
Well it's dark, dismal and wet so what better way to pass the time than use bright colours and make something cheerful. This is for the Less is More Challenge week 249 where the theme is to use FIRE COLOURS.
I decided to go with autumn leaves as the colours have been so good this year. I've used Oak House Studio's Sycamore stamp, inked with the Triple Sunshine Yellows Ink Pad.......but, before I stamped onto the card, I picked up some spritzed Brilliant Red Brusho to add more contrasting colour and give that watercolour look. It's just finished with the sentiment and matted onto some deep orange card.
Thanks for visiting and I hope I've brightened your day!
