Autumn Leaves...

Good morning everyone! 

Today I have a 5x7 Autumn Art Journal page to share with you... I can't wait until fall because it's my favorite time of the year! 

The background was created with Carved Pumpkin, Fossilized Amber & Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide inks and a couple of leaf stamps. Once dry I added Stickles Moon Dust Glitter Gel through Tim Holtz Burlap Stencil. The leaves were cut with QuicKutz dies, colored with the same DOI colors and then stamped with Stampendous Vintage Note stamp.The large sentiment was cut with a Echo Park die and I used Tim Holtz Tiny Text stamp set for the other sentiments. For added texture I used a small piece of corrugated cardboard and a strip of mulberry paper, which I darken with ink.
Here's a close up- Stickles Moon Dust Glitter Gel gives your project a lot of dimension and shine... I love it! :)
Well, that's all for now... thanks so much for stopping by!
Take care, Tammy

Autumn is always a favorite season for me, because the colors are so warm and welcoming. I loved how you added the great texture with glitter gel. It was an absolutely perfect journal entry for Jo's theme at Art Journal Journey. Those leaves are incredible, as is the background.
