With this quintessential fall scene for our inspiration, I decided to use the chalkboard technique and PTI's Autumn Hills stamp set to heat emboss a little scene in white on a black cardstock panel.
The leaves and pumpkins were colored in with a white Prismacolor pencil and then layered with shades of yellow, orange and red.
White ink is smudged around the edges of the panel before it is popped up on a Canyon Clay card base.
I'm off to check out the cards linked up this month! Thanks for stopping by,
Jacquie
