Autumn Greetings "You're
in My Thoughts" This is a multi insert type booklet card. The cover and back are done using Arches 140lb watercolor paper with a deckle edge. It was painted wet on wet with color washes in butterscotch, terra cotta, walnut ink and a touch of lettuce green, then sprinkled with sea salt and rubbing alcohol. The lettering is a funky style done using a rheostat and low wattage iron and embossing powders in gold and carnelian. The leaves are punched out of some gold painted watercolor paper. The booklet is tied closed with a golden ribbon interwoven through the cover. |
