Ah, Autumn for Heart 2 Heart Challenge

Inking it up - indeed!  A Heart 2 Heart challenge from Close To My Heart to use fall colors.  Specifically, Sunset, Barn Red, Cashmere and Gypsy. 

I could only think about those soon to be fall sunsets that we have here in New England, and here is what I came up with . . .


I was amazed that the Cashmere ink took on a bit of a green tone.  I used the Gypsy for the sky, and the Sunset for . . . well, the sunset of course.  The Barn Red was used on all the trees, including the background trees which were second generation stamping.  I was skeptical these colors would work, but I was impressed with the end result. 


All supplies used are Close To My Heart.

  8. This is gorgeous. I never would have thought of using Barn Red on the trees. That stamp set is enroute to my house and I cannot wait to try something like this. Thanks for the inspiration.
