Really in a Fall mood here in Dreamland! I am working on a few Thanksgiving cards this week Today's card is made with Paper Towels. What??!! Yes!! Here is the story. I was making some backgrounds and wiped up ink from the Craft Sheet with a couple paper towels. I was looking at them thinking the colors look really cool. And, I remembered the Technique making textured paper with toilet paper . So, out comes this new embossing folder with mums--this one is called "Awesome Blossoms" from Sizzix.. And look how cool this looks.
I rubbed some watercolor crayons over the flowers and leaves. And, also sponged some green ink on the leaves. The card base is made from dark wine textured CS. I added a layer of Lucky Limeade CS (Stampin' Up).
This card only needed a big bow in the corner for embellishments. Well, now I guess I have to start saving the paper towels. LOL But, only if the inky mess looks cool. LOL
I wanted this to double as a Thanksgiving card for my BFF. I stamped a nice sentiments from Mark's Finest Heinrich and Happy Thanksgiving from Impression Obsession.
And, now, a few fun Challenges for my Paper Towel Mum Thanksgiving card.

Paper Play: thankful
