Monday, Monday Revisted

I came across this stamp set yesterday and wondered how it would look using autumn colors. Here's the result. I stamped my images with Chocolate ink and colored them using markers. The patterned paper is from a long-retired CTMH paper packet called "Nature's Treasures." The sketch is simple, and I think the card turned out kind of cute.

Materials & Tools: Colonial White, Chocolate, and retired Naturals cardstock; Nature's Treasures paper packet (retired); Chocolate ink pad; Goldrush, Autumn Terracotta, Sunflower, Barn Red, and Brown Bag markers; Hero Arts Trees, Birds, and Sentiments and Papertrey Ink Mixed Messages stamp sets; Antiqued Copper mini brads; Autumn Terracotta Designer Ribbon Rounds (retired); Stampin' Up Ticket punch.

I hope yours was a great Monday. My day was, for lack of a better word, "interesting," and tonight, I need to put it all into perspective with the belief that tomorrow will be a not-so-interesting, better day. I'll be back then to tell you about it.

Ooohhh, I like it using fall colors. I think I have the same tree...now I wanna play! Darn...too bad I have about 15 loads of laundry to do...

Thanks for sharing. Hope your Tuesday is less "interesting" than your Monday must have been.
