Sunday Postcard Art - Autumn Glory

Autumn is making herself known in many areas, even here finally as the temperature will be highs in the 60's tomorrow (F), where it has been in the 90's! Sunday Postcard Art is celebrating Autumn this week with Autumn Glory as the theme.

I painted the card metallic silver, then rubbed on a few distress ink colors. Then I added some alcohol inks and moved them around by blowing through a straw. I rubber stamped a maple leaf with StazOn in Timber Brown, and then added some gold leaf around the edges.

Welcome Autumn!
