Below you can see some of the more predominant fall colors with the gold hues and glitter, but I also wanted to mix some blue and green colors in. I used a Tim Holtz harlequin stencil and applied modeling paste over it before using several different shades of blue, green, and teal mists to get the color I was going for. At the last minute I decided to use a brownish red mist from Lindy's Stamp Gang (sorry, posting away from home so I can't look at the color) with a small paintbrush around the edges of the harlequin diamonds.
Below you can check out one of my flower clusters along with some paper layering and splatter painting. The cream colored rose is hard resin and I love the way that it gives the LO a little bit of a throwback "days lost/days gone" feel.
Below is part of my other flower cluster. As you can see I was able to use some teal in this one to give a splash of color! (LOVE teal!) Don't you just love all the clear "sparklies" on some of these flowers from Petaloo?!
And finally, here is a closeup of the stencil work with flowers in the background. The fibers came from my stash and I think they give just the perfect touch of softness to this project!
There you have it! The leaves are changing and I'm so glad I had a chance to make this fabulous fall colored LO. Thanks for looking!!!
xoxo,
