I got some time to stamp today. I kept thinking about yesterday's card (posted HERE). My photo made it look dark, and my mind read that as muddy. So I set out to make it over today. Just for fun!
Adding the white circular die cut, a white embossed sentiment, and using less leaves lightened up the overall look. Instead of using blended Oxide inks, which have muted chalky hues - I watercolored the leaves, using my Gansai Tambi paints. I also added a very few ink spatters to the card front.
I am MUCH more pleased with this one. Also, the photo. Thanks to the Color Throwdown for these great colors!
Thank you for visiting today. Tell me which card you like best? Gently, please.....

Well, I'm just now getting here and seeing both cards at once, but I have to say I do love this one with the watercolored leaves and white card base. Wow! The colors are beautiful for autumn! I sure hope it cools off down there soon. Been seeing the weather reports. Now, off to take a closer look at the other card.
Oh my...the gold is so elegant! LOVE this card! Thanks again for joining us at CTD!
Both cards are great, but the one with the white background looks like lace, & sets off the cluster of leaves and colors fabulous!!
I love this one too! The bright colors are wonderful!
