Autumn Prayers

Hi Friends!!

Today I am sharing a quick card using the Impression Obsession  “Colonial House in Spring” (although I colored it with autumn colors vs spring:-)) and paired it with a pre-printed digital sentiment from Power Poppy by Marcella (plus, I had this sentiment already pre-printed and in my “stash”:-)).  

I love this scene- it takes a few minutes to watercolor but overall, this card is very easy to create :-)

As I mentioned in previous posts, I am still trying to give my neglected and mostly retired, older stamp sets some “love” .  I have bought a few new stamp sets recently, but I am trying to limit my purchases since I have so many already (it will take years to ink them all :-))!   

I am linking this card to the Try It On Tuesday “Hot, Hot, Hot” Challenge (I used “hot” colors- reds, oranges, yellows), the PINspirational #248 Inspiration Challenge (I was inspired by the beautiful fall colors of the reds, oranges, yellows and greens) and the Simon Says Wednesday “Anything Goes” Challenge.

If you have not had a chance to drop by the above challenge sites yet, I hope you do so- gorgeous inspiration from all!

Stamp the Colonial House in Spring image with Versafine™ Onyx Black onto white cardstock, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.  After the powder has cooled, watercolor with water-based markers.

Die cut with a stitched rectangle die, layer onto espresso and rust cardstock before mounting onto the white card base.

Add the digital sentiment along with pearls to finish off the card.  Quick and easy for sure!
