I've based this card on the photo over at TIME OUT Challenges - TOC#66 - I really like the way the window opens onto the autumn colours. I masked the edge of my card and sponged on several colours adding a darker edge with hickory smoke to suggest the window frame. I splashed on some water droplets - just love the way distress inks react with water. Dried them off to give a lovely mottled effect. I used my MISTI to position and stamp the sentiment. I then stamped some foliage images with distress ink. On the inside I cut a mat layer of rust card and on the white panel added a simple verse and more foliage.

So pleased our photo inspired you and you created a gorgoeus mix of deep rich Autumn colours. Thanks for joining TO
Lovely card Deb. I do like the soft tones with the distress inks together with the water mottling. Works really well with the nature styled stamps x
Beautiful card Debs. I know exactly what you mean, it is easier to create such a lovely card when you head isn't involved.

Very gorgeous card Deb ! I love the contrast of the vibrant colors of autumn with this soft wild "grass". Ideal for this kind of card. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful blending, Deborah ... the autumn colours are so striking! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Time Out! Anita :)
Wow Deborah, this is such a stunning CAS design and your blending is perfection. And don't worry, I always seem to be running late with my DT cards half the time too! So happy you joined us at TIME OUT!
