Autumn Hope

Morning folks!

Sunday is here again, and with the weather changing in my part of the world it sure feels like the end of Summer.  {Sigh}.  At least that means I'll have more indoor time to spend card making for the next few months :-)  LOL!

When I dug through my drawers of stamps, this one caught my eye since I've been seeing so many birds flying south lately.  It's an image I got recently from CHF and was needing to be inked up.  The sentiment is also from a CHF set.  

The image is stamped in Sepia Versafine on Staples 110lb...I realized after that if I had stamped it on the Aquabee marker paper I've been using lately that it would have had a finer impression...will make sure to use that next time!  The water and sky are coloured using my Copics and Airbrush, and a bit of colour added to the boat, hunter and dog with pastels.  Along the edges of the image, to give it a bit of a border, I've rubbed on metalic paste.

I hope you are enjoying your Sunday!
