Autumn Fairy and Autumn Leaves

We have a new challenge at Artistic Inspirations I am a day late posting as I had printer/ink issues and thinking I already had image printed when obviously I didn't!!!We are sponsored by Fabrika Fantasy and I used the beautiful image "Autumn Fairy" coloured with promarkers.

Die cut frame is from Spellbinders,B.papers from The Works,dewdrops from stash--the background foliage and berries is a craft mag freebie stamped in distress ink.
The larger leaves were stamped and fussy cut from card coloured with Decoart and Cosmic shimmer sprays with glossy accent raindrops--the smaller leaves are die cut and versamarked and covered with four different mica powders.All the stamps including the sentiment are craft mag freebies.

ATC Trading Coins

Thinking of those whose homes and lives are in the path of the hurricane-Stay safe.

I have some more ATC Trading coins to share I have also made them for a FB swap on UK Stampers Forum-the theme is ATG, we also swap ATCs/postcards/tags and inches and more recently banners will post that another day.Now I even remembered to take pic too!!!
First of all I used a copy paper sheet that has been used to stamp on instead of cleaning stamps and also oddments of left over colour.

Then chose sections to cut the coins out of using a scalloped circle die from Creative Dies.

These pieces were then stuck onto the die-cut coins for strength and stamped on using part of a craft mag freebie set-distress inked edges and done!!!
