Season's Eatings!

Hello, today I made a fall card, Thanksgiving is well knows for it's elaborate dinners, we don't celebrate those in the Netherlands, but we and others have been known to eat Turkey for Christmas. I thought Season's eatings as my sentiment might cover both occasions and they sound similar, I thought it's rather clever. 

The colors on the other hand are very autumnal like. I've used Distress inks ( Crackling Campfire, Carved Pumpkin, Spiced Marmalade and Mustard Seed) on the card base fading to the lightest color behind the Turkey.

The image is a digi stamp from Whimsy Stamps and Dustin Pike and I 've added the sentiment in Photoshop, printed it oud, colored the image with Ohuhu markers this time and then cut it out.

 I thought the bottom white could be a table cloth, so I added shading underneath the bird, then moutned it to the cardbase with tape runner.

You can find the digi in the Whimsy Store here:  https://whimsystamps.com/products/turkey-dinner-digital-stamp

AAA Birthday Cards Challenge November: Favorite Image #67

 

Hello, this month we're all about our favorite image and it had to be a cat didn't it?

I particularly love this "meh" looking cat from Katzelkraft's Les Chats Russe, esp together with the Snarky sentiment from Clearly Besotted (Laugh out loud again)

I stamped both with Versafine black ink om Waterart watecololoring paper and then colored the image with Karin Markers, I;m rather new to that and I think my paper isn't the best watercoloring paper and it's fine on small bits, like the eys and purple, but the grey looks a bit patchy to me.

I might redo it or not, depends how I feel about it in a couple of days ;-), maybe it just needs to dry properly overnight?

I'm looking forward to your favorite images this month.
